Another reason for maximum GOTV activism:

House seats. If Republicans aren't enthusiastic about Trump, they may not turn out in huge numbers. That leaves House seats that currently have only a +5 or less margin for the Republicans are vulnerable to flipping.

In Minnesota, there are two like that. MN-2 and MN-3. I'll be working on GOTV efforts in those districts to turn out enough Democratic voters to flip them.

If you're a Democrat, in whatever state, check your house seat. If it's vulnerable to a flip with a small margin for the Republican, GOTV could make all the difference. Many Republicans are likely to stay home with Trump as the candidate. Democrats should do all they can to increase turnout. There might be even more seats that are flippable.

Let's do this!
