We have tons and tons of seats that are filled by people who don't even really get elected because they essentially run unopposed. F*** it why not. Run for governor, run for state senate, run for your city council, run for school board. We just had a guy win one of the most powerful positions in his State on a budget of like $200 for campaign funds. There's no reason not to. This is how you get into the fight, you overwhelm the system with a tide of fresh blood. If you're reading this, then you should also be looking at your local elections to see what seats are going to be contested, and then you should be running for those seats.
