lol one of the state representative candidates brags in his statement about helping pass a bill to ban rental housing discrimination

I know who *not* to vote for

I'm doing a write in for the congressional candidate who didnt make it onto the ballot in my district because they were pro wall and anti sanctuary

I don't have time to research all these obscure state representative candidates

probably just gonna go down the line Republican

Just got another guy to apply, got confirmation while lifting. Peak IE

if you want better candidates you have 2 choices: (1) youre the better candidate (2) someone you know is. only way that happens is by joining your local GOP & putting in qualitative time

Who sounds better, Nathan Choi or Steve Gonzalez?

choi

it's a nonpartisan position, so I can't just pick the Republican

Write in James Allsup

lmao ya I should just write in James Allsup for all the cucky Republicans

God, so many of these people are running unopposed

hence: better candidates: get your guys in

Maybe I'll run for PCO next election

At a local level, all you have to do to get a position is show up

I know for a fact that PCOs are chosen in election

But I guess if the position is vacant you can just show up and claim it?

thats bad advice: ***always*** spend qualitative time at your GOP don't just shoot for showing up

show up squared away: well dressed, looking good, etc. Don't blow your load all at once: be a normie GOP guy. Show enthusiasm and help out every chance you get.

the problem with a lot of positions that are full time is they pay shit

so if youre shooting to climb the political ladder youll need to do something on the side to supplement your income

well

this would be kinda hard to do when I don't have a car

see if you can carpool with someone or take the bus

I mean... ya I could probably take the bus, but it wastes a lot of time and I don't know if I want to be walking to the bus stop in my nice clothes

then get a car

I can't just poof a car into existence

I was dumb enough to fall for the university meme, so now I'm stuck being a poor college student for a few years

you can get a good old civic for 3-4k & insurance will be around 50-100 a month for basic bottom coverage

you wont be able to get a loan for that though or if you do the interest rate will be crazy high. usually loaning institutions really jam you up if youre getting an auto loan for less than 10k

ya if only I had 3-4k that I could withdraw without consequences

take the bus and save as much as you can in the meantime

My all time high in terms of how much money I had was around $18,000 lol

then crypto crashed

I think I just kinda ended up back where I started, so I'm not particularly bitter about it

@Koba Is it actually that easy to get a paid position? I was thinking of something unpaid like PCO

honestly Im not sure about that. I was looking at entry level GOP positions for PA and they usually start around 35-40k a year with decent benefits

state legislature here is about 90k a year plus benefits, but PA is the 3rd highest paying state legislature behind CA & NY I think

given the pay and how the party is mostly filled with 50+ Id say its probably easy to get a spot

Where did you find this information?
