Last night, YPM made the evening news on LA’s ABC 7.  We were out in full force, getting out the vote and Sonja got picked for an interview.  Go YPM!

YPM has made national news! … Oh, hold the effin’ phone.
It’s that bastard evil twin again: The other YPM.

If you’ve been paying attention to Olbermann or the Huffington Post, you might have seen that another group with the same acronym as us just got busted for voter fraud.
That’s right, folks! YPM, the Young Political Majors, has been caught breaking the law on behalf of the GOP, erroneously and illegally transferring voter registrations to the Republicans.

Let’s be really clear, and let’s not overstate the obvious: We, the Young Progressive Majority (YPM), are NOT party to the voter fraud and have NO affiliation with this evil twin YPM.

We are, always and forever, a non-partisan organization dedicated to demystifying local politics for young people. In fact, we have suspicions that they have co-opted our name to attract young voters. We, the real YPM, are small, but we fiercely believe that our YPM is the future of politics, and theirs is the past. The dominance of the politics of fraud and deceit is coming to an end; the politics of being informed, progressive and involved is the future. We believe in our message, we know that it resonates with our community, and find it telling that their YPM is getting arrested, and ours is throwing a party.
