28:14Now PlayingThe world is burning down, and Chuck Schumer is writing strongly worded letters. Don’t get us wrong, Schumer has been a leader of consequence with an incredible slate of accomplishments. But wandering the floor with his flip phone, it’s clear that he is a politician for a different time.
That’s why we wanted to speak with Eva Posner, the CEO of Evinco Strategies, a women-run political consulting firm that specializes in helping candidates from underrepresented communities run for office. In other words, they are doing the hard work to rebuild the Democratic Party from the bottom up.
This, of course, is where you come in.
If we are going to rebuild the Democratic Party, we need new candidates. That roster comes from local office, where elected officials not only learn how to campaign, but — more importantly — learn how to serve a constituency. Learn how to fill potholes, manage budgets, listen to those they serve.
That’s also why diversity is important. If we want a party that looks and breathes and lives like the rest of us, then we either have to find those candidates where we live, or become them.
P.S. By some counts, there are over 500,000 local elected officials in this country. There are opportunities!
