I knew quite a few Arapahoe County party chairs during my years in Colorado. They raised some money, ran the county conventions and liked to party with elected officials. None that I observed said much of consequence or influenced many votes.
After a year or two in office, most gave up on the grind and went back to their private lives.
Candidates win elections, not county or state chairs, I think. I don't know who my county chair is in Florida and don't need to.
With the Internet, blogs, political sites and other sources of political information, I'm thinking that most voters have a lot of information sources and influencers who are more effective than party chairs.
What are the degrees of confidence for your polling?
