Knocking on doors to gather signatures to run for office is certainly an educational experience. The vast majority of people quickly proclaim that they're either a Republican or Democrat, and vote that way. Never mind that Harrisburg has been broken a long time, under both parties. Never mind that my area is in a new state house district, and most people don't even know who the candidates are. Although getting people to think independently, much less vote that way will be a challenge, running as an R or D would be too bland for me. Help me send a message to Harrisburg.
Those who grumble and hide behind their front doors are the reason we have this entrenched, entitled State Legislature.
