I meant to have this ready before Mother’s Day, but glad it’s done before Father’s. ::: A Father’s and Mother’s Day Reflection from the Ashes of History https://t.co/CveO6MsHZV via @goodreads
Convention was fantastic. Everyone is fired up, but now we have 74 days to the election and it’s time to get to work. Here’s our to do list:
1. Check your voter registration. Then check it in September, and again in October. Don’t let them steal your voice.
2. Get out the vote. You can help here in a lot of ways:
- phone banking
- postcards
- digital canvassing
- helping people in your area register if they don’t know how
- you can also donate to candidates if you are so inclined, but make sure you’re giving to actual candidates and not the many scams out there!
3. Keep the enthusiasm. 75 days isn’t a lot of time in politics, so this shouldn’t be an issue.
4. DON’T GET COMPLACENT. We will likely see a post-DNC poll boost. Ignore that. Polls don’t vote. Start making a plan now for how you’ll vote, for helping people you care about get to the polls, etc. In the words of Hillary, it takes a village.
5. Elect Madame President Kamala Harris and Coach Tim Walz.
I hope everybody in the Polk Street area goes to the new location of #BobsDonuts when it opens cause they’ve got the best apple fritters in the Bay Area. https://t.co/aopjKVye45
