We've all been there. Some of the same loudmouth regressives that always write letters to the editor, are the same ones that occupy city council seats and other seats.
Here's an idea that should catch on (I wish I wrote this earlier!)
Do a "write-in"! Today for example, I voted for the few progressives running for where I live, and then I wrote in things like "The 99%." If we get enough people to vote for things like that, wouldn't it be hilarious if a write-in beat somebody who is running unopposed? I'm guessing not many people fill in the boxes for people that are running unopposed, and plus a write-in vote in a small town could see the unopposed with the headline "Candidate loses to "the 99% by one vote"
Anyways, it's just a thought.
