As an example of how powerful a single person can be, most places in the country are divided into wards and precincts (I am unaware of anyplace that doesn't do this, but, nonetheless, you have my hedge).

These places send delegates to state (and national) conventions. At these conventions, major fucking decisions are made, such as what the official (state) party platform will be, and sometimes, ​_who can appear at all on the primary ballot_​.

In 2012 I participated in the state dem convention. That fall Liz Warren beat Scott Brown. She had no primary. Why?

Because Marisa DeFranco was unable to convince 15% or more of the state delegates to vote for her at the convention. Even though she was a very liberal candidate and by all measures a great woman (I like her very much but did not vote for her at the convention).

Now, in this setting, my individual vote very easily could have swung things. Marisa came in at around 5-6% or so. I could have persuaded others to vote with me. Etc. Point bei
