Vocab Schmocab

#mcm BURNISH (v): polish (something, especially metal) by rubbing ✨ “Feel the Burnish” ✨ to my CA friends: today is the last day to register to vote for the Democratic primary on June 7. Respectfully, I implore you to please, if you have not already, look into the record and vision of Bernie Sanders. He is a true advocate for education for all Americans, regardless of their income. You must be registered either as a Democrat or as No Party Affiliation in order to vote for Bernie. He still has a chance despite what you may hear on major news networks. Even if you support another candidate I still encourage you all in the remaining primary states to get out and vote on June 7. Thank you!
