You know what’s interesting about the Working Families Party? They’re a national party without a formal national structure beyond a national staff and an advisory board.

No national convention, no campaign fundraising committees, no national committee of state delegates.

Their primary focus, in the 10 states where they operate, is working on state politics. Their endorsements of Bernie Sanders in the Dem primary and Hillary Clinton in the general were their first presidential endorsements​, and presidential endorsements may be a rarity for the WFP.

But I like that. The WFP doesn’t need a major party-like structure when it is mostly focused on state politics. We need that sort of focus here in GA, a focus on building power for our 99%.

The Dems can worry about national politics. But maybe the WFP can help fix our state politics.
