15 million hand written letters to be mailed by thousands of volunteers tomorrow

I only wrote 70. It takes some time to hand write and hand address letters, but the vote forward big send is tomorrow. Thousands of volunteers are calling folks to get to the polls early and to vote by mail early. These letters are designed to get unlikely registered Democratic leaning voters in key states to vote November 3rd. I hope for massive early and mail-in voting and a surge of unlikely Democratic voters on November 3rd. There is a lot of hard "behind the scenes" work going on by the good guys this year.

The fly will be the main thing remembered

I wasn’t watching the debate and my wife and son were laughing and my son yelled “Dad there is a fly on Pence’s head” we laughed for a few minutes. After it flew off I stopped watching again

I visit Santa Fe on occasion and was always reminded of her walking through downtown.

The town loved her and she loved Santa Fe. She was a wonderful Supreme Court Justice and Person.

I have been thinking about our situation right now and how important it is for Democrats and left/moderate Independents to come together as one unit. I often think of the Will Rogers quote “I am not a member of any organized political party — I am a Democrat. ” In today's environment, we do not have this luxury. We must be more united than the republicans. Our tent can be big, but it must be united and motivated even if we don't get exactly what we want when we want it. This includes off season elections. Our Democracy depends on it. We can blame faux news or rush limpball, but we must unite ourselves. We have the power. Otherwise we get what we get.
