Can the Neighborhood Election Caucus and Conventions be improved? Yes!
We
need to make sure the Utah neighborhood election caucus system is set
up so it could be done in 2 hrs.
and we get the election results, not just back to the county and state parties,
but to those that missed it so they can still contribute and let their
elected delegates and precinct leaders know what they think. The person that got a babysitter for 2 hrs to attend their neighborhood caucus should be able to vote
We need to coordinate with college and university campuses in
Utah to make sure students know where a caucus meeting is, and Utah
residents can register to attend and participate. Perhaps we should
increase the number of locations the neighborhood caucuses are on college and university campuses. We can add another hundred thousand new caucus attendees in 2014.
Fair Elections Utah Working to improve, but not gut, our neighborhood election caucus system. The Caucus System in Utah is the best way to make sure a grass roots process can work over large amounts of money. It is the only way someone with $100,000 can go against someone with $2,000,000 in election funds. We had a system that did NOT favor the incumbent, wealthy or famous. This was a good thing. SB 54 made things bad. The New Count My Vote is worse.
