[QUOTE="HarryN, post: 1009076, member: 69773"] What we see here in CA is if someone wants an issue passed or politician elected, they literally go door to door and drive people to the booth who will vote the way they want. Laws that pass are not based on what the majority wants, it is based on who was giving out rides to the voting booth. This is what is referred to as "grass root" work. It often has little to do with the local people, it has to do with how to pay people to give out rides, and knowing who is likely to vote certain ways. Believe me, it is quite organized and they already have a pretty good idea how 90% will vote in the next election, even though you don't know who the candidates will be or the issues on the ballot.
