The GOP is extremely effective at turning out their voters. We must be more effective than they are!

We should all know that by now having suffered the shock of 2016. Of course, I too love the prediction that Joe Biden is going to beat Trump like a drum. But even the best prediction can only give us a glimpse of what would happen if the election were held TODAY, not November 3rd.

Which means we must act as if these numbers were reversed and work like hell to expand Biden's lead making sure people register, vote while being prepared for the ugliest campaign in living memory.

Trump will not go into that good night quietly. We have to ensure he and his enablers are washed out to sea in the biggest wave imaginable.

We can do this because we must for our own sake and the sake of the country.

Never forget, never forgive.
