I often say that a vote is a kind of prayer for the world we desire for ourselves and for our children. Voting is faith put into action.

…democracy is the political enactment of a spiritual idea, this notion that each of us has within us a spark of the divine, that we were created in the image of God; and if you’re not given to that kind of religious language, that’s fine, our tent is big. Simply put it this way - each of has value, and if we have value, we ought to have a voice, and the way to have a voice is to have a vote to determine the direction of your country and your destiny within it.

I know that the days are still difficult, the times are dark, but the light, the scripture says, shines in the darkness and the darkness overcometh it not.

my friends: o hey ur back early me: election’s not over my friends: what? me: *writing this post* election’s not over

There’s still 2 Senate seats in Georgia left to win in a January 5 runoff election. Winning one of them will FLIP! THE! SENNNAAAAATE! 

“But,” you say, “I am Le Tired of ze electionnn, why does zis mattere?” 

The GA runoff election law is basically a nerf against Black political influence in that state

538 projects* that one of the Dem candidates is slightly favored to win the runoff. In other words, the Senate is ours to lose.

Repubs are terrified of losing GA as the “last line of defense against the radical left” 🙄

The Repubs are down, and they’re gonna spend like crazy to buy retention of these Senate seats. Here’s how you can help put the boot in while they’re down:

IF YOU LIVE IN GEORGIA:

To vote in the runoff you must be registered by December 7, 2020

Check your voter status!! Check it again! (You just know they’re gonna be “cleaning” the lists...)

The runoff is on Jan 5, 2021. Make a plan.

You may be able to vote early*; see the GA.gov runoff voting info page and contact your county registrar’s office

WHETHER YOU LIVE IN GEORGIA OR NOT:

Donate to Stacey Abrams’ Fair Fight PAC for fair elections in Georgia

Follow the @ReverendWarnock and Jon @Ossoff on Twitter

Toss 5$ to The Rev

Make calls to help Jon

Chip in 5$ to Jon’s campaign

Sign up at VoteForward to send letters to voters in Georgia (This is amazing and so easy!)

And finally, just as you did for the national election, share this info w your friends and help them understand the impact:

If we flip the Senate, that kicks Mitch The Purple Turtle Fucker McConnell out of his role as Sen. Majority Leader!

That would be so amazing, right??

A Biden/Harris administration with a McConnell-run, GOP-owned Senate means more Senate blocking of everything we want. Welfare for All? Piss off. Green New Deal? Nice try! Defunding the Police? *sneering laughter* Election Reform? *uncontrollable laughter* 

Anything radical, just FORGET it. Without a blue Senate, we’re just gonna see more politicking and more bad deals, and more chance for the right to clap back hard in 2024. It means whenever a great measure that we want fails, most of America will shrug and go “well what can Biden do with a Senate like that?”

A Biden/Harris admin with a blue Senate means they will have no excuses, and most of America will behind you when you hold them to task!
