To those in the 42 'non-battleground' states - voting still IMPERATIVE! |

Edited on Mon Oct-18-04 05:32 PM by Richardo
Please continue all efforts to get out the vote - especially with newly registered voters who may be discouraged by the 'inevitability' card being played by Rove and the major media outlets, who are touting only the polls most favorable to Bush.
The House races are as important (if not more so) than the Presidency. If the House remains Republican, Kerry will get NO legislation passed, and Bush (please God, no) will run even more rampant. (And Tom Delay will be the defacto President as far as setting the agenda and passing Legislation goes.) x(
A Democratic House would restore the "checks and balance" to our government.
Again, please emphasize to the newbie voters the importance of the House races...
:D

:thumbsup: Not to mention that we need to show our disdain in the popular vote.

...and no matter how much CNN or anyone else tries to tell people in blue states that their votes don't matter, that they're, in effect, disenfranchised, don't believe it, VOTE. Not voting just because the state is "won" by the Democrats is only "won' if people vote.

I would normally vote Libertarian here in Texas (to hurt the GOP by building them up), but I went for Kerry this time around. We need a HUGE popular vote majority for a mandate when Kerry wins, and each state's Kerry voters count towards that goal.
