1) Young people do not vote in Midterms. Old people do. And voter apathy it getting worse. 
2) Stop what you are doing. Look at this chart. If your state has a registration deadline. REGISTER NOW!
3) The Republicans have been systematically redrawing districts to their advantage and in many states illegally. Now Trump is using the Kavanaugh fiasco to gin up his cult voters.
📣2018 FLORIDA STATE SENATE THREAD📣
Democrats in Florida have 2 chances to make history in 2018:
1. By electing @andrewgillum to #FLGov.
2. By taking the FL State Senate back after *24* years.
If you know of ANYONE in Florida, or have ANY Floridian followers, please share!

The Florida State Senate is made up of 40 seats.
22 seats are currently held by Republicans, 16 are held by Democrats, and 2 are vacant.
Democrats need a net gain of +5 seats in order to take the chamber.

Democrats need a net gain of +5 seats in order to take the chamber.
Florida State Senate elections are staggered, so only 22 of the 40 seats are up for grabs in 2018.
Gaining 5 seats is tough, but the numbers prove it’s doable.
Please spread the word about these Democratic contenders!

This article is from last December, but it's worth remembering. GOPers knew the #TaxScam would cause enormous deficits. They planned (and still plan) to dismantle Social Security and Medicare to pay for it. Problem is, SocSec and Medicare HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DEFICIT.

1/5
Both Social Security and Medicare are funded through dedicated taxes (your payroll taxes, otherwise known as FICA), and are NOT part of the general fund.
The only way to use SocSec and Medicare to pay for the #TaxScam is to STEAL *YOUR* HEALTHCARE AND RETIREMENT MONEY.

▶️75% of the voters is 4.2 million people.

ℹ️The exact amount of money is “projected” because—according to the amendment that was passed—it was to come from 33% of Florida’s existing excise tax. An Excise tax is a “documentary stamp tax” paid when real estate is sold, typically 70 cents per $100 paid for the property.

Exit polls are a scientifically proven litmus test. In 2016, they were off by as high as 10%
Anything above ~2.5% indicates suspect anomalies. It triggers other countries to nullify elections.

The Constitution does not enforce itself.
When a Fascist Party controls the Executive, the Congress and the Courts, the Fascists can simply ignore the Constitution, and there is no power able to hold them to account.

Getting @realDonaldTrump elected wasn't Russia's main goal.
Russia's bigger goal has always been to create chaos and distrust within American society.
They want Americans to distrust the media by not knowing what's real and what's not.
I fully believe that our democracy hinges on flipping Congress blue, so I actively promote Democrats.
I carefully select which primary candidates to highlight based on character, expertise & other factors. But most important of all is fit for the district. Will they win?
