Seth MacFarlane gets it!




People vote. And get out the vote. In every election. It doesn't matter if it's a school board, comptroller, judge, city council, state rep, mayor, sheriff, congressional representative, senator, yes, even president. If we don't vote, if we leave any unchecked box on a ballot, they win. And it starts at the local level.

Distribute by mail, email, text messages, social media platforms, and town hall meetings. GET ON IT NOW!
Please flood the DNC with our ideas and comments and suggestions. No money until they agree to our terms.

I'm not voting for any judge or city council, school board member who's a MAGA. They do not have our best interests in mind.

I live in a red area and a small town where running as a Democrat is a joke. Everyone in our local township's government is a Repuke. Every.single.one. One of the guys on council ran as a Democrat for years and years and for any and every position possible, but lost every single time. Then he decided to run as an R and won. Today we have a guy on the ballot who is a Democrat and I voted for him even though I know his changes are next to nothing, but I'll be goddamned if I'll stay home and not vote.
