1. I hate seeing headlines like this one, especially this year.

This is a real make-or-break election year. Do you want a sovereign country next year? Do you want democracy? People have GOT to understand they MUST vote to ensure it happens. We've got to have an overwhelming number of voters hitting the polls. Anything else, and the republicans' cheating measures will win out, I'm afraid. This election is not one for the timid or the apathetic. There can be no apathy to voting any longer, AFAIC. And once we DO take back government, one of the first new laws to hit the books must be declaring election day a holiday for everyone, as well as longer polling hours, and a true assessment and formula for electoral tools to the number of a region's voters. Just MO.
