One role that CSCC could play would be to promote the importance of local issues. For many voters in the Valley (and throughout the country), the idea that voting actually affects their lives has been lost. So many issues seem way beyond our control. Local issues are a way to help them reconnect, especially in voting for state and local offices.
What are some issues we could craft a message around? Here are some ideas:
Electricity deregulation--did you vote for that?
Thruway: talked about for 40 years. Let's move on that. Vote.
Health care in Pennsylvania: Critical.
What ideas do you have for using local issues to motivate voters?

Electricity deregulation, has any consumer made out on this over the years????
Thruway - this is easy, hire Palin lobbyists who worked on the Bridge to Nowhere.
Healthcare - PA did get something passed with HB1155. Autism is now covered and colon cancer screening. In this legwork (I worked on colon cancer screening) I found out two "Big Blues" gave away millions to build a hospital and university in exchange for subscribers.
