Description
DC veteran Caroline Fredrickson argues that it's time for progressives to focus on winning. She shows what can be learnt from the right: a determination to focus on judicial elections, state power, and voter laws without stooping to their dishonest, rule-breaking tactics. The left must be ruthless in thinking through how they can work effectively within the rules of the game to regain power, to expand the franchise, end voter suppression, win judicial elections, and fight for transparency and fairness in the US political system.
