Our Democratic Way of Life Is At Risk!
If you want to save our Democracy, you have to VOTE!
If you want a say in what gets put into law – VOTE!
(You know what the Republicans stand for! If you want that, vote Republican)
That means vote in local and county elections. That means vote in State elections. That means vote in National elections.
That means vote in EVERY election!
