The tradition was to have someone else do it each year, but eest did it so well that I think we can break it. If you want to run a party or be a part of one, though, don't feel like you are being forced.
running a party is a pain in the ass, though. I've done both that and running the whole election, and running it is easier and less annoying. Besides, I can still be the driving force behind a secret party.
