There are no laurels to rest on in this election. Not yet, at least.
Polls are polls, and they affect our pre-election perceptions and expectations. But it's only the ballots that will count, cast by Americans of all parties, religious denominations, and diverse ethnic groups we’re blessed to count as fellow citizens. The election won't be over until the voters have spoken.
If you care about your country, your friends, your family, and generations yet to come, about their rights , and their abilities to enjoy the liberties and privileges you've enjoyed, YOU MUST VOTE IN THIS UPCOMING ELECTION.
If you already have a mail-in ballot and you have not yet voted, follow the instructions, fill it out, and mail it in ASAP. It may require additional postage.
If you plan to vote early, learn the dates and times to do so, get to your polling place, and VOTE.
If you plan to vote in person on Election Day, Tuesday, November 8, get there early, patiently wait out the lines, and let nothing and no one stand in your way. VOTE!
I don't have to remind you how important this presidential race is. But equally important are the various races for US Senate, US House of Representatives, and your state and local candidates who deserve your vote.
If the last eight years of obstruction by Congress have frustrated your trust in Washington, you have a chance to fix it: VOTE BLUE. VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS up and down the ballot.
Get out and VOTE!
