The news on primaries has been pretty exciting this week. The new candidates, the policy debates, the fundraising - all interesting and exciting to see. And every primary contest is different so as the weeks go on the news will get more exciting!
But in the end there is one thing every progressive candidate primary victory has in common. One thread that connects all our victories and separates them from our defeats. A thing so simple that it can be summed up in three words:
The most votes.
As exciting as growing campaign war chests, new TV commercials and snappy responses to corporatist attacks are, the tedium of voter registration must be done and must be done now. Particularly for one group of voters: overseas voters. If you live overseas, now is the time to get your ass registered.
In the end, all that matters is your vote.
