Bernie is losing momentum due to less and less young voter turn out. Nevada would have been ours but the young voter turn out was very low. I hope people actually go out and vote rather than just offering social media support. This is such a pivotal moment in American politics that it would be a huge disservice to the world to not go out and vote in the primary.
Seriously guys, GO VOTE. You need to vote in the primaries and you need to vote in the general election.
Not registered? GO HERE RIGHT NOW.
Away at school? Traveling? Have a disability that makes it impossible to go to the polls? GO HERE RIGHT NOW.
Think this is just about the president? IT IS NOT. As President Obama’s two terms have shown, it is extremely difficult for a president to affect change if they are being blocked left and right by Congress.
So GO HERE AND LEARN ABOUT YOUR CONGRESSMEN AND WOMEN’S VOTING RECORDS so you can make an informed decision about those seats as well!
Please, guys. Please. If you’re sitting there thinking your vote doesn’t matter, just think of this: WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF EVERYONE WHO THOUGHT THAT VOTED ANYWAY.
This is not the election to sit out. Our country is a seriously scary place right now and getting scarier every day. We need leadership that will work to change things. And you can bet that the people intent on preserving the fucked-up status quo will get out and vote, so WE HAVE TO AS WELL. Otherwise, we’re in for four more years of fuckery and inaction.
GO VOTE. GO VOTE. GO VOTE.
Gonna reblog it once a day until March 1st and then once a week after that until the election to keep it on my followers’ dashes because IT IS THAT IMPORTANT.
