Even if you live in an overwhelmingly Democratic state or in a red state, your vote still matters |

in the popular vote, for whatever that's worth.
How are you gonna feel if you don't vote and if the repuke wins the popular vote by a small margin, regardless of who wins the election? So for the ones who think they can skip voting for Hillary because their vote won't make a bit of difference, lets hope that there aren't thousands of similar minded people, just for sake of the popular vote mattering. Little as it matters, everyone always seems to brag about who won the popular vote in close elections. So vote. :smoke:

1. and don't write off any potential voter |
|
We can't afford to do that. We need to come up with good arguments, backed up with facts, to support our nominee when we talk with others.

2. Blue votes are very important in Red states for appearance sake. |
|
Seriously.
The higher the percentage of a blue loss, the more it is clear that a state or district is not as red and some would say.
This helps in the next election when it is reported that the red guy only won by x%.
Encourages voters. Brings more DNC campaign money and support into the state.
Always vote. Period.
