Precinct Strategy scores again

Precinct Strategy scores again
By Terry A. Hurlbut
Last weekend, the Arizona Republican Party passed a resolution denouncing the coronavirus vaccines. But far more important than the content of the resolution, was who put it forward and passed it – and how. That resolution is a product of a movement calling itself Precinct Strategy. That movement scares leftists and RINOS alike, and with good cause – at least from their point of view. Those who care about their country and their freedom should take heart – and take part.
The latest victory
Yesterday, Dr. Joseph Sansone published to Substack his report on a “Ban the Jab” resolution at the Arizona Republican Convention. A Jonathan Kopel – who might or might not be a house officer in Georgetown University Hospital’s Neurology program – submitted the essay to The Gateway Pundit. According to the report, Dan Schultz, founder of Precinct Strategy (visit their Web site), submitted the resolution. Arizona’s Republican convention passed it with 95.62 percent of the vote. Three months earlier, Schultz had submitted a similar resolution at the Maricopa County Republican Committee. They passed it with 87.4 percent of the vote.
The resolution reads as follows:
Whereas:
Strong and credible evidence shows Covid 19 and Covid 19 injections are biological and technological weapons, and
Pfizer’s clinical data revealed 1,223 deaths, 42,000 adverse cases, 158,000 adverse incidents, and approximately 1,000 side effects, and
an enormous number of people have died and or have been permanently disabled after having been injected by the Covid 19 injections, and
strong and credible evidence from Sweden exists that Covid mRNA shots alter human DNA, and
government agencies, media, and tech companies, and other corporations have committed enormous fraud by claiming Covid injections are safe and effective, and
The Florida Department of Health has called for a halt to the mRNA injections, and continued experimentation on humans and denial of informed consent are violations of the Nuremberg Code and therefore constitute crimes against humanity, [now therefore be it]
Resolved: [That]
On behalf of the preservation of the human race, the 2024 Arizona Republican Party Presidential Nominating Convention Delegates call upon Governor Hobbs and the state legislature to prohibit the sale and distribution of Covid injections and all mRNA injections in Arizona, and for the Arizona Attorney General to immediately seize all Covid injections and mRNA injections in Arizona and perform a forensic analysis on these so-called “vaccines.”
The first state to pass such a resolution was Idaho. A similar resolution passed in Florida, which makes Dr. Sansone’s count of Arizona as “the second Republican Party to pass a Ban the Jab resolution” a trifle confusing.
Commenters on Dr. Sansone’s Substack page received the news enthusiastically – but commenters at The Gateway Pundit were openly skeptical. Most called it a useless virtue signal. But they all missed one thing: that Dan Schultz and his Precinct Strategy movement got it passed. How they did it is even more important. Passing this resolution involved more than reintroducing it until someone had to act. It also included putting the votes in place to pass it when it finally came to a vote. To understand that, one must first understand what Precinct Strategy is and how it works.
What is Precinct Strategy?
Precinct Strategy is Dan Schultz’ brainchild, a project he has been working on since before 2013. But for years his ideas gained little traction.
Then came the Election of 2020. Two things happened that prompted Steve Bannon, a long-time Trump activist, to go back through his email archives (or discards) and fish Dan Schultz’ message out of storage. First, the infamous Stairstep Graph happened, with Joe Biden seemingly taking the lead from Trump overnight and instantaneously. Second, too many Republican county and other unit committee chairs failed – indeed refused – to act.
According to a ProPublica article published early in 2021, Bannon invited Schultz on his new Bannon’s War Room program. Bannon asked Schultz what happens if Republican legislatures failed to nullify elections in the “Stairstep States” of Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Arizona. Schultz answered that activists should then take over the Party by standing and campaigning for little-known precinct chairmanships and committee spots. Bannon didn’t let him explain then – but brought him back on February 6, 2021.
Precinct Strategy is about two things:
• Joining the Republican apparatus at the local level, in sufficient numbers to outvote those presently in charge, and:
• Signing people up to become accredited Party election challengers (poll watchers) and Officers of Election (poll workers).
The rationale is simple: it is better to become a precinct officer than to complain about the conduct of one. That goes double for Officers of Election.
Lightning fast recruitment
Until 2021, Republican and Democratic Party county and other unit committees had few members. Those members might have been totally apathetic. Your editor actually heard some attendees at campaign events complain about their beauty parlor appointment schedules conflicting with activism!
But after that February 6 podcast, that ended. Maricopa County, Arizona tells the tale. Shortly after that podcast, the Maricopa County Republican Committee, which had been steadily shrinking, abruptly started growing. And growing, and growing. The Maricopa County Democratic Committee was registering growth – but its growth rate changed little on that day.
If the 2022 Midterms is any indicator, activists in Maricopa County have a long way to go. But in other counties they have clearly succeeded. Such activists in Virginia – both as cold callers and door knockers and as poll workers and watchers – helped Glenn Youngkin become the first Republican Governor in eight years.
Today the success of Precinct Strategy tends to be spotty. Some Republican unit chairs welcome the new recruits. Others try to shut them out of the party – like Kathy Petsas in – you guessed it – Maricopa County, Arizona.
Being motivated by conspiracy theories is no way to go through life, and no way for us to build a high-functioning party. That attitude can’t prevail.
WRONG! If you don’t want people to accuse you of conspiracy, don’t conspire! And don’t conspire through inaction, either. As an aside, ProPublica made much of the “Q-Anon conspiracy theory” that focused on President Trump’s efforts to stop child trafficking. The Angel Studios release Sound of Freedom provided all the proof anyone needs, that a worldwide child trafficking network exists. Crow, anyone?
How Precinct Strategy can flip more blue States
Patti Lyman, Virginia’s representative to the Republican National Committee, told CNAV recently that there are no blue States. Rather, there are States whose Republican Parties have let a handful of the most populous cities dominate State-wide elections. Any “county carry” map tells the tale: even the bluest State has islands of blue in a sea of red. In a State like Texas, a much lower proportion of city dwellers vote Democratic – and the State Republican Party has organized the rurals to vote, a thing they once almost never did. Lyman challenges other State Republican Parties to do as Texas does.
Precinct Strategy terrifies leftist activist groups, like the League of Women Voters. “The Deniers Are Coming, The Deniers Are Coming!” squeal these activists, who nevertheless don’t know how to stop them. They have every ground for concern. Before 2021, not only were Party committee elections among the sleepiest, but Officers of Election were almost always Little Old Ladies in Tennis Shoes – or Democratic Party activists. Officer parity – having equal numbers of Republican and Democratic OOEs in most precincts – was almost unknown. No more! Thanks to Precinct Strategy, and the example it sets, Republican activists are becoming OOEs, and even precinct election chiefs. That means those activists who brought pre-filled-in ballots in their “suitcases” (OOE carry cases for equipment and supplies) are either out of jobs, or have relative strangers ready to ask, “What is [the meaning of] this?”
Taking over the Party and the Board of Elections
In this patient, painstaking way, Precinct Strategy motivates activists to take over the State Republican Party and the elections. Their goal at Party level is to ensure support for candidates for reasons other than the venal corruption that, too often, prevails. This, and not “open primaries,” is how “We the People” clear the smoke out of the smoke-filled room. This is also how activists ensure that their Party will not let the Deep State steal any more elections like 2020 – or Midterms 2022, especially in Arizona. That debacle surely informs Dan Schultz of how long a way he has to go.
More to the point, the next step after recruiting more poll watchers and poll workers, is to switch to hand-counted paper ballots, one unit at a time. A handful of counties have already moved to that system. Hand-counting will require hiring more people, for an hourly wage. But OOE payroll pales in comparison to voting-machine security, maintenance – and legal defense. More to the point, France has been voting on paper and hand-counting votes for half a century. They can turn a national election around in twenty-four hours.
In short, Precinct Strategy is the way to a Party more responsive to voters’ concerns – and elections the people can trust once again.
