Civics in the precincts is needed. Real representation and productive public dialog are necessary for a functioning republic.
Are constituents willing to contact people, they know, in their precinct to identify any shared civic priorities for their own precinct and then for their legislative districts.
Good Governance
Led by legislators, all "majoritive" concerns and priorities should, first, be addressed locally and only then legislatively. Legislators must ensure the transparent accounting of taxpayer dollars!
Legislation should be developed openly and in concert with our local, state, federally elected officials, and the precincts. Growing the electorate's support, statewide, for legislation should be done throughout the year. This is how Wyoming can get the People's Business, bills, passed!
I ask constituents to only support candidate willing to make the data, necessary for an informed citizenry, accessible to the public. This should start with official, real-time, general ledger data for all of the taxpayers' dollars.
What is the point of electing representatives, if the electorate can’t provide guidance and direct their elected officials?
Is there interest in working together to improve our civic circumstances?
Civics
Self governing is a blessing, yet a burden on the citizen. Together the load may be lightened, so how can constituents organize to promote civic participation while minimizing the costs, of time and effort, for each individual?
Improving Communications Between Constituents
Communications through a friend of a friend (FOAF) network can quickly relay dialog between people that know each other. Would constituents welcome an independent, robust, timely, and inexpensive way to determine, and then report, shared civic priorities?
Civics in the Precincts
Publishing the information necessary to maintain awareness of civic concerns and priorities should be an objective for each precinct in Wyoming.
Breaking a precinct down, by streets or topics, makes it easier to report on a precinct's priorities.
Designating precinct coordinators may help to coordinate precinct reporting.
As needed, in-person meetings could be held for precincts or legislative districts.
Good Civic Governance
Verifiable majority agreement by the electorate creates legitimacy for directing electeds on public policy, spending, and taxation.
Negotiations between legislators and deliberations between precinct constituents can happen concurrently.
When reported, precinct priorities provide, real-time, guidance for our elected officials.
Is seeking the greatest degree of agreement on public policy, spending, and taxation a reasonable critera for good civic governance?
Would constituents of Sheridan, Wyoming contact people they know; to evaluate, if improved representation is a priority for them?
