    There’s indeed benefits about this now that I think about it again.

    1. The party can gauge it’s local strength

    2. A higher score could make people interested in the party.

      agreed, but on the flip side, it identify targets for the dnc to suppress and this is A LOT more likely to happen since leftists parties cannot officially operate in most liberal jurisdictions as a party (because of the dnc).

        So i’ll need to compare the potential benefits to the potential downsides.

          It’s still a benefit either way; worse case scenario is that the DNC has to burn resources to cancel your vote out in the next election. Lol
