They're not trying to win any elections or hold any offices. Whatever workers party the DSA is trying to build is. The PSLs concept of a workers party is a militant movement primarily engaged in direct action. This is something I've heard from an actual PSL member on this site, any others are free to clarify, but as I understand their position is that electoralism is futile. Which I sympathize with and probably most actual DSA organizers do to. But you do the Mao thing and go to the people and they really want to vote socialist and see change.
The PSL is working on running more candidates at the state and local level. It's just hard to find suitable, well, candidates. I can't say anything more than that.
Is that a recent change in decision or have they always been trying to run local candidates?
