In 2008 and 2012, 61.6% and 58.6% of eligible voters, voted! In 2016 only 58.1% of eligible voters voted.

To say the 2020 vote will determine whether democracy survives is the understatement of the year.

We only have 57 days to turn out the vote.

What can we do?....
@inspiredjen and the totaly awesome voluteers at @AoCChecklist have put together a well researched set of checklists to help us create the highest voter turnout ever recorded.
Because that is what it will take to restore decency, honesty, and integrity and to save democracy...
