* We are in primary season. States vote at different times, so I beg ALL of you to check when your state is voting. If you are in an in-person vote state, research ahead of time so you can vote for the candidate with views closest to your own. If you vote by mail, take the time to look them up when your ballot comes.
THIS is how you move the party further LEFT.
PLAN YOUR VOTE!!!
Primary schedule here:
* "2026 Statewide Primary Calendar:" https://www.270towin.com/2026-state-primary-calendar/
I don't know where you live, so I can't link this for you, but I find the Progressive Voter Guide online very helpful in narrowing down candidates in the often packed primaries where I live.
I also suggest looking at things like volunteer work and endorsements, because it really, really helps with things like sheriff and judicial elections, but can be useful in all sorts of primaries when you have multiple good options.
REMEMBER: Don't just vote for the big things like US Congress. Vote in every State and local race down to the smallest and on all the referendums.
State and local elections have a massive impact on your quality of life.

They are waiting on a tail light and need to fix a few things, but it runs. They are all on vacation next week, so it likely won't be for sale for another 2-3 weeks. He can't give an exact price as they need to see how much fixing, but he thinks it'll come in between 3-4000 with state tax and fees. They no longer in house finance, but he had a suggestion for how to make it work with them, so I'm concentrating on that part right now.
I will need a down payment and the closer to the purchase price, the better.
I am disabled and I need the car for transport.
