I'm not sure that's true - I mean, presumably some things have to happen for the position or else why have it? I guess in terms of being in a group of legislators that's less true, but town supervisor or dogcatcher or whatever - I'd get elected once, then when there's no one at the meetings or doing whatever needs to be done to IDK, plow the roads or something or no one answers a call to catch a dog - I'd not get elected again, so have I accomplished anything doing that? And I don't like to claim I'll do something and then just never do it, it's even worse to go in knowing I'm never going to do it, but I'd prefer no one to a Republican. Plus, then I become a public individual and lose a lot of privacy rights and am liable to get attack ads etc, even if I'm actually just a "straw candidate" to have a D on the ballot.
