Imagine if we all did this. Create tiny towns dotting the countryside with a specific goal of coming up with the most ridiculous primary traditions. Maybe one town everyone drives through the local Burger King and votes by placing an order. Another town votes by galloping through a gate on the back of a llama. A third town votes by seeing which party representative can do a handstand for the longest.

I think if we all create small rural towns we can really control the primary narrative and make some real electoral changes in this country.

Anyway use this thread to come up with more great Democratic ways to vote in a primary

We incorporate a small town in rural Iowa that specializes in dairy products. The primary is based off of which candidate the voters think is best at chugging a gallon of melted butter from a plastic milk container while standing knee-deep in cow manure. The voters cast their ballots at one of the 73 diners we built all around the town, where they vote by pouring a pre measured amount of milk into one of several mason jars. We call it the Hogg's Point Butter Caucus.
