Political Party Rosters

[Jabberwocky]

According to my latest research, our political parties have these members:

MSPP -17
TIP - 32
WAPP - 7
TDP - 5 

A total of 61 allegedly active members. As pleased (and surprised) as I was to win the last Senatorial election, I was dismayed that only 40 voters made it to the polls. Less than 2/3 of active members. While I intend to promote recruitment into our parties, it appears there is work to be done within our own ranks. At election time, perhaps we can make a geater concerted effort to urge our own members o get out and vote;  further, to become involved themselves on a more than nominal basis. I interpret that to mean a broader, grass roots movement, requiring all of us to make the effort to approach our fellows and ask them to fulfill their civic duties. Enjoying the benefits of our fair region also entails a responsibility to it. (Didn` t Hobbes talk about that?) 

I`ve drafted a telegram template to issue to new XKI members, especially those who have made it to the forum, still subject to final revision. I urge all of my fellow party members, of all stripes, to also make some small effort to encourage others, new members and old, to get out there and vote. 

Naturally, I am open to all feedback, either here in this thread or at my office...or on the beach!

A total of 101 allegedly active members. As pleased (and surprised) as I was to win the last Senatorial election, I was dismayed that only 40 voters made it to the polls. Less than 50% of active members. While I intend to promote recruitment into our parties, it appears there is work to be done within our own ranks.

I'm pretty sure that TDP has a lot a cte'ed members on their roster...

The peninsular informs me there are 5 active members

"Less than 50% of active members. "
Should be changed to
"2/3rds of active members.

Done

I see a few new members recently. I`ve been sending a telegram to every new forum member; it`s not unlike door to door sales. But it might help.

MSPP -25
TIP - 34
WAPP - 8
TDP - 7

Total - 74

I'm going to keep a running total on each party as they attract new members. My motives are transparent. I intend to demonstrate that our rolls increased during my tenure as Senator. and to see if my efforts at approaching each new forum member pays off. We've added a few new members, each of whom I've invited. I'd like to think that my invitation brought them here. Where I've added the names of new members: well, I'm not the head of the respective parties, it's up to them to officially add them to the rosters.
