Constitution Party National Committee Chair Justin Magill issued a message this month urging supporters to use the 2025 off-cycle to expand local organizing and strengthen state affiliates, while briefly outlining efforts already underway in some areas.

In a letter published last Friday, Magill urged the party to treat the off-year as an opportunity to prioritize local organizing and candidate recruitment, particularly in areas where partisan competition is currently minimal or nonexistent. According to his message, Constitution Party leaders are actively focusing on contests for school board and other municipal offices, while also working to develop their county-level affiliates.

“This is the season for building the local Constitution Party,” Magill wrote. “States have the opportunity to build momentum in localized areas that will later impact larger races.”

Magill specifically cited Pennsylvania as a key state where the party has been focusing on municipal races, referencing two Constitution Party members who currently hold seats on the Clarion-Limestone School Board in Clarion County. He said their presence has already helped shift the district away from “Progressive indoctrination and back towards quality education.” He added that three additional Constitution-affiliated candidates are running for the same board later this year, with the goal of capturing a majority.

Alongside candidate recruitment, Magill encouraged state and local affiliates to conduct voter registration drives, host educational programming, and organize “less formal” fundraising events. He also stressed person-to-person outreach, which he described as particularly effective in smaller races as a direct way to engage with voters while keeping advertising costs low.

In states without local elections this year, Magill said Constitution affiliates are focused on more long-term planning and training new local and county-level leaders. The party is also scouting candidates for the 2026 election cycle and gathering ballot access signatures in states where it remains unqualified, though he didn’t explore specifics.

While not referenced in Magill’s letter, Independent Political Report has previously identified off-year activity aimed at rebranding and expanding the Constitution Party. On Independence Day, the national party launched its first major website redesign in several years. Earlier this year, it began soliciting member submissions for a new logo and formally recognized a new Indiana affiliate at its spring national committee meeting.

In California, party organizers aligned with former state chair Don Grundmann also began efforts to regain recognition by filing as a political body. However, the state affiliate was previously disaffiliated by the national committee in 2023 and recent efforts do not appear to be part of current party-building efforts. According to a February report from the California Secretary of State, the party currently has 218 registered voters statewide.

What is really sad is, every disgruntled loser wants to start a new party..

Even, or especially, really rich, childish, ungrateful, disgruntled, name calling, losers want their own party.
