I voted today, and wait for the very best part.

[herding cats]

I drove people to the polls. 5 of whom where were first time Democratic voters!

Today was (and will be) my biggest day of first time Dem voters this cycle and I wanted share with everyone here.

I registered 2 of these voters and I felt like a mom sending her chicks off to tackle the big, bad world on their own.

It was a very good day!

[efhmc]

1. Thank you.

[herding cats]

12. They deserve the thanks for getting out and doing the good work.

I was so proud of all of them all today.

They all made me so proud to be an American again.

It was the best day ever in my career of GOTV work! I'm so thrilled it all ended up falling together like this today.

[niyad]

2. Hugggggggs. So very proud of you and all you do!

[herding cats]

14. They did the voting!

I just helped make it happen. I'm so proud of them all!

3. 💐💐💐

[herding cats]

15. Thank you!

They deserve all the love and respect. They got out and voted!

[Wounded Bear]

4. K & R...nt

[ForgedCrank]

5. Thanks for

recognizing the real problem we have, which is obviously turnout.
Imagine the results if every Democrat did this and took at least one more person with them to vote.

[herding cats]

17. Exactly right! Turnout is the issue and we do need to drive this point home.

Load up your vehicle and if you can drive folks to vote. Early voting works best for me since a lot of folks have weird days off and the spouse or other family members needed the vehicle that day.

Trust me, it feels so good to help people become engaged in our system.

6. Great big ol' K & R!

[LisaL]

7. Nice!

[BlueGreenLady]

9. Yesss! Way to go!

[BOSSHOG]

10. Herding Cats was Herding Voters

Thanks for making my day Teammate.

[Solomon]

33. I was about to make the same point!

[herding cats]

38. We're all in this together.

I have no clue if I tilted any scales, but I did engage new people. Which in my view is the very best any of us can do.

[Native]

11. Major kudos!👏👏👏

[Peacetrain]

13. Alrighty now!!!

[SharonAnn]

16. And Sunday I'll be crossing state lines to "Knock for Warnock" in Georgia!

[brer cat]

18. This Georgian thanks you for doing that. nt

[herding cats]

20. Thank you so much!!

I've been making calls for him, but door knocking is so beyond that.

[lees1975]

22. I'll be crossing into Wisconsin to knock on doors for Mandela Barnes.

Went a week ago, and the response was fantastic.

[Elessar Zappa]

19. If everyone did what you did, we'd never lose another election.

Thank you!

[herding cats]

36. This! I deeply want to encourage others to take someone with them to vote.

The statistics I've seen on how many Democratic leaning folks just don't make it to the polls breaks my heart.

Please, if you can, help a Dem to the polls.

[calimary]

21. YAY!!!!!! And MANY thanks, herding cats!

And you made it a very good day for all of them, too!

[Sailingdiver]

23. Thank you!

[FakeNoose]

24. That's awesome

If you have the time, you'll probably run into other first-time voters who need a ride.
This continues for another 2 weeks, until November 8th.

Pay it forward!

[UTUSN]

25. Thank you.

[Meadowoak]

26. Thank you for your service, herding cats.

[BrienDoesIt]

27. My god thank you

I have hope again because of people like you.

[Cha]

28. Mahalo for All your GOTV, Cat!!💙

💙

[herding cats]

34. Thank them for getting out to vote!

I'm so pooped tonight. I got my booster today, too. Which might be the reason, but it was also such an emotional and beautiful day for me.

I adore when I get to work my local precinct. It restores my faith in our decency to see these good local people working to save our democracy.

I'm driving voters for three counties this year. I'm going to be exhausted by November 9th, but it's worth every moment to get people engaged in the system.

When I was asked to get back in the thick of it this year I considered Covid, but the windows are down and I'm masked. This is a calculated risk I'm more than willing to engage in for our democracy. People need rides and sometimes a stop for ice cream on the way home helps them remember me and they're more inclined to let me take them again. Apparently, I'm some folks favorite. I love them, too. ❤️

I'm happy to be back in the saddle doing what I know how to do.

[Cha]

41. Mahalo to All you helped GOTV.. 💙🤷‍♂️💕

Souls to the Polls! May you and all be Healthy & Strong, Dear Cat

[MLAA]

[Grown2Hate]

In all seriousness, thank you SO much! It's efforts like this that win Elections!

[I_UndergroundPanther]

31. 😸❤️thank you! Every vote counts!

[sleroy49]

32. That's

not illegal yet?

[herding cats]

35. No, why would it be?

They just need rides, or want to be a part of a group going to vote.

[sleroy49]

43. Lighten up Francis. It was a joke.

[sheshe2]

59. No need to snark at herding cats.

You comment, "Lighten up Francis." was unnecessary. She is a highly respected member of DU.

Just Stop.

[herding cats]

62. Thank you. ❤️

I just now saw this. Thank you for having my back!

[sheshe2]

[herding cats]

57. Texas.

I wish it were Georgia or Pennsylvania, but I do what I can where I am.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

53. You may have started them on an addiction to their power! Thank you!

[herding cats]

58. I truly hope so!

I'm also hoping they spread the amazing feeling of having a hand in their own fates.
