How do I help my area move to districts?

This "it adds one more level to be able to qualify" comes from people that don't understand how districts work.

With a select few exceptions, it does add an additional level to be able to qualify. Very few teams are able to gather enough points in their first two events to not need additional points at their DCMP to reach CMP. For budget conscious teams, there is a significant additional cost associated with having to compete three times prior to CMP rather than just once.

I don't think that concern outweighs the benefit of districts in most regions, but it is a legitimate concern.
