Multiply Your Vote Using This One Weird Trick

I know the polls are all looking increasingly good for the future of the Planet. IGNORE THEM!

We need to play this one like we are behind, everywhere. No matter what pre-election polls look like we need to get every possible vote.

Now, we all know people who are less-than-totally insane, and would vote Democrat if they bothered to vote, but are unlikely to bother. Odds are you know a half-dozen or more like that; they are your assignment.

Go make yourself an expert on absentee voting in your State: learn all the Rules, and all the legit reasons one can vote absentee. Becoming an expert in most cases will take an hour.

Then use your newfound expertise to make it take NO EFFORT for your 6 non-voters to submit a ballot. Do whatever is legal, get them an application for an absentee ballot, buy them a stamp to mail it in, promise them a blowjob for a completed ballot (think of how much quicker you can wash the taste out than if Trumputin gets elected), do ANYTHING THAT'S LEGAL to get those ballots mailed in.

Do this, and if the much-desired landslide gets reported on Election Night you can sit back with a satisfied grin that would make the Cheshire cat blush.

Although any extracurricular enticements you offer should, of course, be tailored to the audience/cast

Down ticket is as important as the Presidential. Your local progressives need your vote too.They need the votes of you well meaning but flaky friends and relatives too! This is something ANYONE can do.

Yep, not everybody can do 20 hours/week phone-banking or knocking on doors, but between now and Election Day almost anybody could, with little effort, ring up a half-dozen votes for the full slate. Hoped it would get seen more
