Tell Your Friends in Blue States: We're Fighting for the Popular Vote. |
|
Every vote counts this election. Votes in New York, votes in California, votes in Illinois etc. We need each and every vote for Kerry to give him as solid a mandate as possible. They fight dirtier than we do. If Bush is seen as the popular vote winner, you know they will argue even harder than we did in 2000 that Bush is the legitimate President. It could be the fig leaf they would use to justify efforts to steal this election. Voter turn out in Blue states, and Democratic turn out in Red States, even when the electoral college vote is a forgone conclusion, is more important this election than it ever has been previously. Make sure everyone you know gets to the polls.

2. On Nov. 6, 2000, I sent an email to everyone I knew |

it said in part: "This is expected to be the closest presidential election in over a 100 years, and there may even be an electoral/popular vote schism, so even though Gore is expected to win Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey by large margins, in the end every vote may be very meaningful..."
Little did I know.....

3. Tell your friends in the red states |
|
that you don't care if your state is redder than freaking blood, you want them to hit that Kerry vote.
No defeatism. No excuses. Kerry.

4. Absolutely. If Smirk loses the EV but wins the popular vote the SCOTUS |
|
could decide that our process for electing a president is archaic and in need of revision.Smirk wins again, 5/4.

5. Not only that, but they need to vote for ALL democrats! |
|
Being in Mass, some people say oh why bother standing in line to vote because Kerry's going to win the state anyway. Answer: Because Democrats running for state senate, house, local races, all need your vote! Not just Kerry! :)
