Third Party candidates(Green and Libertarian) to all the seats that I didn't care about.
Me too. A Libertarian or Green candidate would wet themselves if they won a high-ranking position, but local ones are just fine. In fact, the more a party becomes strong on the local level, the more it will be a path to some measure of political success, as opposed to the dead-end it is now. If that happens, qualified politicians will join that party more often, when they finally believe the organization would have a snowball's chance to help their campaigns.
