This was part of the reason I was a registered Democrat for so many years.
In Texas in the 60 and 70's most elections were decided in the Democratic
primary.
Republicans were so few and far between that most local choices and even some
state races were unopposed. Actually that has not changed much in El Paso,
TX, but I vote in NM.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and
degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is
worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing
to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a
miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by
the exertions of better men than himself.<A
