  1. It’s almost as if one party doesn’t want the people to have the power to remove them from power.

  2. Texas and Florida being on there is a big deal. We have a legitimate shot at turning those blue this election!

  3. It’s telling that Conservatives rely on and create laws (gerrymandering, no vote by mail, no national holiday for voting, etc.) to limit participation in elections. That is the only way they can stay in power.

    Their policies and politicians are not only wildly unpopular, but just flat out weird. Increased turnout not only scares them, but is going to absolutely screw them. Now we just need to make it happen.

    Vote people. It matters.

  4. This is going to be a wild election. Violence and Republican legal fuckery.

  5. “If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.”

    — David Frum

  6. We’re taking out ALL of the Trump trash in November.

    “Be there, will be wild!” 🇺🇸

  7. In states like Texas where they try to intimidate democrats, they need to wear Trump shirts or buses with Trump flags on them going to the polling booths.

  8. * REGISTER to vote.
    * Check your registration!
    * Make sure you have approriate ID.
    * Know your polling site.
    * Check your voter registration signature (if a mail-in ballot is used, also inquire about how to check the status of the ballot).
    * Get a mail-in ballot.
    * And VOTE (early, if possible)!

    Republicans without a party and Independents must hold their noses and vote for Biden-Harris and democrats down ballot. **Country before party.**

  9. It’s important to remind everyone who is thinking about staying home that they get out and vote.
    For some reason, the media isn’t doing the same level of Rock The Vote campaigning that they usually do

  10. Even if you are in a red state, VOTE! People don’t vote in them because they don’t think it matters. It matters and there are a lot more of them than what you think

  11. Biden should create an executive order making Election Day a national holiday a week before the election.

  12. In my 24 years of voting, I have only ever know the Republican Party to try to limit voting and the Democratic Parry to try to expand it.

  13. How can this be an acceptable behaviour in a democracy? Trying to hinder people from voting would be a prison sentence in Sweden.
