I was telling someone that he could vote early and he said "wow, has it been four years already?"

So don't assume people know what they're voting for. Most of us on DU are diehards, but most of the population is not as tuned in.

1. That includes the GOP too.

I don’t remind anyone about the election without knowing they will vote blue.

3. Republicans have always been better about voting in off years and local elections

Democrats are harder to turn out.

5. Very true. That's why I don't help em

Been surrounded by em since I was a kid.

2. Yes, otherwise smart and educated folks are often politically illiterate.

Ask everyone.

4. It's up to us to tell them what is on the line. Every chance we get. And this...

you are still voting for President. You are voting that the President will be able to do the things he promised to do when he was elected in 2020. He will only be able to do what he has promised if you vote and vote for ALL Democrats.

6. did he vote in any previous elections?

Does he fit the MAGAt profile or the Dem profile?

7. He's definitely liberal in his views.

He just doesn't stay tuned in to politics.
