I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

but we should still vote for Democrats on the state or local levels

To be fair, there might be cases in local elections where it really would be for the best to vote for Dems, as well as (possibly) for like State Senate or whatever. For gubernatorial, congressional, etc. elections though, absolutely not.

I (usually unsuccessfully) vote blue in local/state elections because the alternative in my district is candidates handpicked by an evangelical megachurch that is actively importing like-minded people from the rest of the country so they can achieve an even tighter stranglehold on state politics.
