I got the best news last night

[mercuryblues]

A very good friend of mine, who I've known for 30 years + is very apolitical, called me last night. We talked for hours. She was asking me everything about trump &CO. Who's who and their roll. Then she dropped the biggie, she had registered to vote for the mid terms and voted straight D. She lives in a swing state.

1. Great news.

3. You bet

We never discussed politics unless she asked about a certain issue. I knew she never registered to vote because she thought it was useless. I also know she is very liberal, so that was never an issue in our friendship.

How many more people like her are there out there? On their own walking into the registrar's office and registering to vote because of trump?

2. apolitical people have to decide whether or not the future matters at all to them and their

love ones.

We no longer can have people sit out elections out and why GOP been so successful in so many states they should not be.

4. We may be in a political "great awakening"

Yeah, it really DOES matter who is in office!

5. IKR

trump made that obviously clear to her. She is disgusted by the kids in cages, as we all are.

10. I know a lot of apolitical people whose conscience and a sense of civic duty

has been aroused. 50 somethings who have never voted before thinking it doesn't matter who wins are registering to defeat Trump.

11. That is my experience too.

12. Yay. One at a time!

14. Hey how are you?

Man, I slept good last night. ??

[ancianita]

15. Hey there! Glad to see your posts!

I didn't sleep at all. A bit frilly-minded today.

13. Yep! One vote at a time...that's how we win this...

and take our country back.
