   It isn’t Republicans turning out, either.

   According to CNN, only 26% of registered voters in NH are Dems. As it stands right now, 58.4% overall voted in the Democratic primary, and 41.6% in the Republican.

   That’s great news!

   Yes, people do give a damn… and how can they show it?

   I’ve written reams of emails and some actual letters, and made a bunch of phone calls… to very little end. I’m just ignored by the media outlets, unless I’m a part of a short-lived controversy, which then gets kicked under the rug until next time.

   I’d love to march, but with a chronically sick family member at home, I can’t.

   And what else is there? So I do find this news encouraging.

   It particularly steams me when some bobblehead speaks about an issue and rhetorically asks, “Where’s the outrage?” It’s there, I know, I’m part of it. But I’m being ignored.

   And so are the marches, for the most part.
