#Disaffected #Voters May Want to #Consider What #Decades of #RightWing #MinorityRule Could Bring.
#ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump will not last forever, but if he #wins election to a second term, his #Farright #RepublicanParty’s system of #minority #rule could be here for #decades. The #damage they would inflict on the people of this nation—and the world—is #horrifying to contemplate.

Democrats invite public to off-site ‘DemPalooza’ convention events in Chicago
Vice President Kamala Harris aims to share the campaign trail vibes with the public in Chicago next week with free #manicures, #friendship #bracelet making and #campaign training at the city’s convention center.
The daytime programing, dubbed “#DemPalooza” by party bosses, will take place at the McCormick Place convention center,
about 5 miles from the United Center where more than 4,000 credentialed delegates will gather Monday through Thursday for nightly televised celebrations of their presidential ticket.No credential is required to pass through the security perimeter at the convention center, party officials said.
“It’s a party and everyone is invited,” said Roger Lau, deputy executive director of the Democratic National Committee.
The giveaways and celebratory atmosphere are a tactic Democrats and independent groups supporting them have been using this year to #recruit #volunteers and #interest #disaffected #voters in the coming elections.Outside organizations have been experimenting with dance parties, concerts, free beer and birth control giveaways to engage voters,
while the Biden-Harris campaign has used bracelet making and bingo nights to engage voters.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/08/14/public-dempalooza-dnc-convention-chicago/
