Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI told you last week about my friend and her daughter who are registering to vote
for the first time in years.
Now another friend tells me that she and her husband have made their first political donations ever to Harris/Walz.
I hope more people are doing the same. It would be great to see Arkansas go blue again.

(38,051 posts)I don't agree, I'm sure, on policy, with those Republicans who have come to support Kamala under these dire and dangerous condition. Nevertheless, I applaud their patriotism and I look forward to them starting anew as a new core.

(7,145 posts)To register and vote for Harris Walz. I think that young people along with women are going to vote in numbers much higher than the polling models anticipate

I keep talking to friends and relations but it's a hard sell. My final word these days is that a vote for Trump is a vote against my granddaughters. I am accused of being hyperbolic.

(11 posts)was to go blue, that would be astronomical. I'm originally from Hot Springs and I've been told that voter registration has increased significantly. I don't know how true it is, but it would be welcomed news. Harris/ Walz 2024! 💙
