How are we doing building the RedState Army?


We’ve had up the form for the RedState Army for a week. I don’t plan on constant updates, but I’m pretty impressed with you guys and your sign up rate.

We have contingents in every state in the nation — some small and some large.

California has had 445 sign up and Texas 412. Hawaii has 6 and Delaware has 9.

You can see where we stand after a week right here. And if you haven’t signed up, do so below. Likewise, if you’ve got a blog in a state, you can post the form on your own site and be a RedState Army Recruiter.

Swing States

I notice that most of the swing states in the last cycle form a large chunk of the Army. That is great news.

Indiana has a good showing, but there are more than 113 people in this state. I am going to attend a County GOP Meeting this week…maybe I’ll read the constitution to them. j/k.

RedState in the running for Best Conservative Weblog Award

Voting is open now through Jan. 12.

“Victory comes, though we know not when. We must be happy warriors until the end.

For those of you who struggle with what goes on, who see retreat and capitulation, and who feel like not just your political opponents, but those who hold dear all those things you hold as blasphemous — be cheerful. Be happy. Victory is already yours.

You must just have the courage to not get discouraged and have the will to fight on.” – Erick Erickson at RightOnline

Are we going to let the land of the fruits and nuts on the left coast best us with Conservative sign ups?

Saddle up boys and ride to the sound of the guns!

Updating our profile

Jon E. Schultz II Monday, January 5th at 7:57PM EST (link)

Erick, when I signed up, there were checkboxes for topics I might be interested in, and how we would contribute (time, money, etc).

Is there any way to update the info in the future? Are there plans to merge this into our RedState profile areas, and better integrate with the info we already have for RedState.com?

Just curious.

Jon

That's a work in progress

Erick Erickson Monday, January 5th at 8:10PM EST (link)

Right now I’m pouring it into a database so I can weed out who to harass on email. I don’t want to have to spam you guys all the time, so I figured if an issue came up that only some people were interested in, I could just harass those people.

Who will stand on either hand and keep this bridge with me?

Excellent

Jon E. Schultz II Monday, January 5th at 8:18PM EST (link)

Well if you get it tied into the profile section in the future, that would be cool. I kind of checked a couple of boxes and submitted, not realizing I couldn’t go back in later and select more. I wanted to consider further how much additional I might be able to contribute, as well as the topics I was interested in.

I was thinking about checking most all of the topics, but I didn’t know if you really wanted us doing that, or just checking the things we were *really* interested in.

What’s the command structure of the Army? Are you looking to set up 50 different state commanders to focus on issues pertaining to each state?
