Harness the Momentum of the Kids

[jaxind]

After the huge walkouts by the kids today, we need to harness that momentum and get the kids that will be eligible to vote in November....we need to get them registered and we need to make sure they encourage all their fellow-students to register and to vote in November! If we can get these kids around the country to vote, November will be unbelievable!!

1. They ended the walkout at my school

By passing out voter registration forms to all the seniors.

It was weird, though: you could definitely see the cultural divide. The kids who own MAGA hats made big productions of not going outside (but they all watched as best they could; it had nothing to do with education) and were angry at the kids protesting, but they didn’t know why they were angry. Not a single one of them could articulate why they were angry at the protesting kids, other than the protesting kids “were liberal.” And that’s not even accurate. I’ve known some of those protesting kids for years and would not be surprised in the least if some of them lit a candle in front of a framed photo of Roger Stone every night.

2. I have NO doubt they will be voting.

They seem very aware of what is at stake.
