nThe must-have guide for young progressives looking to run for local office, complete with contributions from elected officials and political operatives. nYouve been depressed since the night of November 8, 2016. You wore black to work the next morning. You berated yourself for your complacency during the Obama years. You ranted on Twitter. You deleted Twitter. You sent emails to your friends saying, How can we get more involved? You listened to Pod Save America. You knit-ted a pussyhat. You showed up to the Womens March on Washington. You protested Donald Trumps executive orders. You called your congressman. You called other peoples congressmen. You set up monthly donations to Planned Parenthood and the ACLU. You reactivated Twitter (begrudgingly). n nHeres what you do next: Run for something. n nTo be specific: Run for local office and become the change you want to see in the world. Forget about Con-gress. Forget about the Senate. Focus on the offices that get the real sh*t done: state legislatures, city councils, school boards, and mayors. n nIt doesnt matter if youre not a white man over sixty with an Ivy League law degree. (In fact, its better if youre not ) n nIt doesnt matter if you dont understand the first thing about running for office, or never even imagined you would. Thats what this book is for. n nAmanda Litman, experienced in hard-fought state and national election campaigns, is here to give you guid-ance as well as wisdom and insight from elected officials and political operatives she interviewed for this book. n nThere are half a million elected officials in the United States. Why cant you be one of them?n
