The intensity is driven by the state referendum on abortion. A "No" vote is a pro-choice vote.

I'm hoping the Ukraine invasion has slowed the flow of fascist-to-fascist rubles. *fingers crossed*

Here is some grassroots activism almost everyone can do to increase midterm turnout:

My friends and I are carrying around pens and sticky notes and/or big mailing labels (things with adhesives that don't cause property damage when removed) and writing messages such as:
- "Defend Choice - Defeat Republicans on 11/8"
- “On 11-8 Vote Blue — or else the GOP will take your right to birth control too.”
- In red states, people are including abortion access website links.

We're placing these notes in public restrooms, highway rest stops, transit stations, shopping malls--any high visibility place.

We'd love it if some DU-ers would do the same and spread the idea far and wide on social media. Thank you!
