Two weeks to go. Trump can still win. VOTE!

Stop listening to polls, pundits and anyone declaring Hillary the winner.

The election is two weeks from today. The winner is not the person that gets the most votes countrywide. The winner is decided by the electoral college, a state-based system which currently requires 270 votes to win the presidency.

George Bush lost the 2000 election by over half a million votes. Yet, he moved into the White House because the Supreme Court declared him the winner in the electoral college (by stopping the Florida recount).

Don't let another theft take place.

Get out and vote like your freedom depends on it. Because it does.

Don't take a Democratic victory for granted. The GOP has a hundred ways to fuck us.

Don't let it happen. VOTE.

And in case I'm not being clear enough, please pay attention to this. VOTE.

I say this as someone who still has nightmares about the way the GOP trolled us in Florida. Do not let your foot off the cockraoches until they stop squirming.
