SUPER TUESDAY: ROUND TWO (Please Signal Boost!)

Tuesday, March 15 has FIVE states holding primary elections. North Carolina, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, and Florida.

Key Points: Illinois allows same-day voter registration.  North Carolina offers same-day in some areas, if you vote during the early period (up until March 12). Three of these states allow 17-year-olds to vote (as long as you turn 18 by Nov 8th).

So, first I’ll give a few tips on other ways you can help, aside from voting.  (Details on the primaries will be below.)

TIPS to help with the campaign.

If you live in these states:

• Get Your Friends and Family To The Polls:
• Call them the morning of the primaries, remind them, nag the hell out of them, make sure they’re up and going. This is important.
• Offer rides if you can, look up bus schedules for them, make it as easy for them as you can.  Someone stuck with absolutely no ride?  Contact your state campaign office (phone numbers are listed on vote.berniesanders.com).  I guarantee they will do everything in their power to get them there.
• Tell People at School/Work:
  
• Canvass - Go door to door, talking to voters and encouraging them to support Bernie.  (I know that sounds scary, but trust me, I’ve been doing this awhile, and 99% of people are going to think it’s amazing and awesome that you’re out volunteering and taking an interest in politics, even if they don’t agree with you.  Canvassing is the number one way to reach people, and increase voter turnout.)
• If you’re feeling brave, make an announcement to the class - or if you’re shy, write it on the whiteboard in empty classrooms (“Vote for Bernie on Tuesday, March 15!  Look up your polling place at vote.berniesanders.com - Decisions are made by those who show up”).  
• Hand out fliers.  (Leave them on busses, etc)
• Find events near you.
• Get some chalk and write the dates of the primaries on sidewalks.  Get the word out.

Not in these states?

• Facebank - this a handy tool that lets you find friends on FB in other states who like Bernie Sanders, and remind them of when and where their primaries are.
  
• Phonebank - Sounds scary, it’s really not. ;)  Basically, you can call people who support Bernie and remind them when the election is.  Or text them!  (It’ll show up as a local number to the people receiving the text/call.)  Phonebanking is incredibly effective, and one of the biggest things you can do for Bernie.
  
• Think phonebanking still sounds a little confusing and/or scary?  Check out this helpful guide.  Remember, we’re all in this together! #NotMeUS #FeelTheBern
  
• These states are ALL going to be very high priority - each and every one of them has a yuuuuuge amount of delegates, so what happens there matters.  Please donate a little of your time to help get the word out!

PLEASE signal boost.  Please go vote.  Bernie needs us.  Millennials overwhelmingly support Bernie Sanders.  Millennials overwhelmingly don’t vote. Bernie has to win the nomination before he can win the presidency.

If millennials voted, he could and would win.  Overwhelmingly, the states Bernie does well in, are states in which young people show up to vote.  Have class?  Talk to your professors.  Most are going to understand.  Have work?  Look up your state’s laws, or check on vote.berniesanders.com to see if you can vote early.  Let’s do this.  #NotMeUs #Bernie2016

Here’s a testimonial from tumblr user @ashikai​ on the importance of your vote in these primaries.  It’s the latest I’ve heard in a string of cases of a candidate winning by a few, or one, votes. Your vote matters.

Ok, seriously tho. This was my first caucus ever and I cannot stress how important it is to show up! TWENTY PEOPLE showed up for my town, plus SEVEN absentee ballots, ok? That’s 27 people. The same size of a normal public school classroom (maybe a little smaller).

When it came time to vote, Bernie won, 22-5 with no undecideds and secured 2 delegates as a result. These aren’t massive numbers people; your vote can and DOES make the difference, especially on a small scale like this.

GO VOTE. NOW.
