88. We've got to feel like we did in 2018 x 10. Assume the worst result and motivate others to vote

It is important no one listens to encouraging news. Just vote your hearts out and kindly and emphatically encourage your neighbors and family to.

Even if your GOP neighbor wants to vote for R’s down ticket—see if we can get moderate GOP, independents and many many Dems to get Biden in and Trump out
