I live just north of San Diego where there is a mayoral election tomorrow. The man in charge of the election was interviewed on the radio and he said he is expecting a 50% election turn out for the vote because 26% of people have already voted by mail in ballots.

The recent elections in VA show us how important even a few votes can be. I will be working to get more people on the vote by mail system in the run up to the primaries in my area in April and May. Keep reminding us!!
