About the 2016 elections...The Congressional GOP majority must be replaced by Democrats - and we must elect a Democrat POTUS in order to make effective global warming and fiscal policies - and then be able to carry out these new, positive policies.
WE NEED OUR YOUTH! They are instrumental to the successful election of a Democratic POTUS and a Democratic majority in Congress! How can you help with the 2016 election? Here are just a few ideas.
- If you are old enough to vote, register to vote if you haven't already done so.
- Groups: Create groups or join existing groups that support the Democratic candidate for President and/or for Congressional seats. Volunteer to assist with voter registration efforts, phone calls, polls, etc.
- Find elected officials through their Twitter accounts or doing a Google search.
- Help a Congressional district gain a Democratic seat: Use Ken Mazlen's website Global Warming and the 2016 Legacy or the Cook Political Report Race Ratings to see a list showing where Democrats can gain House seats. You can help a district even if you do not live in that district.
- Contact the League of Women Voters in your area. Find out how you can help register voters via a booth at local musical festivals or other events.
- Create your own voter registration event.
- Encourage online voter registration via Voto Latino, Vote 411, I Will Vote, OR Rock the Vote where you can even get email reminders when its time to vote!
- Voting as a felon or ex-felon. Yes, felons can vote but it is determined state by state. Here is a list showing if felons & ex-felons can vote in a particular state. Easy read & helpful!
- Learn about the political process. Take it seriously because it is SERIOUS BUSINESS! Get out there and VOTE!
