it's why we need to triple our efforts and get out the vote. Whatever you did last election, triple it this time.
If you called 1000 people, call 3000. If you drove 100 people to the polls, drive 300. If you have the money, triple your donations within the legal limits of course.

If you voted, go find three other people to vote for Biden et al this time.

I have already converted one Trump voter, and I am working on a disinterested voter now, although being in Texas not sure it's going to be enough, but I will keep trying.

Point is, this is going to be close, and we better be locked in like it's a tied game with two minutes to go the entire time.

All of this "Biden's going to trounce Trump" is great for morale, but maybe not so great for effort.
And if folks want to feel motivate to prove this all wrong and that Biden wins easily, then by all means, go out and do everything to make it a rout.

Stop being angry that it might be close, and start being motivated to make it not so.
