I am very concerned about voter suppression

and gerrymandering. We need to get out the vote. But what if they stop people from voting and don't count the ones who do?

I fear another stolen election and a media acting as if they actually won.

If we actually take back the Government in the next 3 years, we must do so mething to address this.

Agreed. I think elections have been stolen for many years. It did not just start in 2016. unitedwethrive Oct 2018 #2

The hope is that those who are manipulating the vote just do so enough to win, but not be too noticeable. So, by turning out it extremely large numbers, we can overcome this dishonesty.

If we gain power, even at local levels, it is time to do everything we can to ensure honest elections in the future.
