President
@BarackObama
on how you're voting for more than just a president this election.
Everything you care about - climate change, health care, criminal justice reform - is on the ballot this November:
"As soon as Congress passes the
#ForThePeopleAct
and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, I will sign it and let the whole world see it." -
@POTUS
"If we pour all our efforts into these 13 days, if we vote up and down the ticket like never before, then we will not only elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, we will also leave no doubt about what this country that we love stands for."
@BarackObama
LFG:
Breaking via NYT: The NBA and its players's union announced a plan to convert league arenas — provided they are under team ownership control — into polling locations for the November election as part of an agreement to resume the playoffs on Saturday.
It's a runoff, folks! And voters in Georgia have until a little over a month, December 7th, to register to vote in the runoff next January.
Let's get to it:

We're headed into the final weekend before the polls close, but our work isn't done yet.

"To the young people who led us this summer, telling us we need to be better, in so many ways you are this country's dreams fulfilled...You're the missing ingredient, the ones who will decide whether or not America becomes the country that fully lives up to its creed."
Reporter: "Is the President saying if he doesn't win this election that he will not accept the results unless he wins?"
Kayleigh McEnany: "The President has always said he'll see what happens and make a determination in the aftermath."
"The road to victory... is going to come through with Michigan, through Detroit.
And to stop the votes suggests to stop democracy."
- Rev. Dr. Steve Bland Jr., working with poll watchers inside the University of Michigan Detroit Center
"We were told we couldn't win this election, but tonight, we proved that with hope, hard work, and the people by our side, anything is possible. May my story be an inspiration to some young person who is trying to grasp and grab hold of the American dream." -

The Wisconsin GOP refused to delay this election despite stay at home orders & sued to block extended vote by mail. They suppressed votes and put lives at risk.
Jill Karofsky won anyway.
Let's make sure our voices are heard again (safely) on November 3:
Jill Karofsky, the liberal challenger, has won Wisconsin's Supreme Court election.
She ousts incumbent Dan Kelly, a Scott Walker-appointed, Trump-endorsed incumbent conservative known for things like comparing slavery to affirmative action.
“We have got to grab our comfortable shoes, put on our masks, pack a brown bag dinner and maybe breakfast too because we’ve got to be willing to stand in line all night if we have to.” -
@MichelleObama
on the passion and hope we must bring to this election
"Imagine January 20th when we swear in a President and a Vice President who have a plan to get us out of this mess, who believe in science, and have a plan to protect this planet for our kids and who care about working Americans."
Lets bring this home:
🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑Adopt A State: Georgia is here! 🍑🍑🍑🍑🍑
We have 54 days till two very competitive Senate runoffs on January 5th that will determine control of the Senate.
Let’s win another one:
“You want to honor John? Let’s honor him by revitalizing the law that he was willing to die for.” -
@BarackObama
Congress, y’all can start here with these marching orders. No excuses.
"I will say I'm an American president. I represent all of you, whether you voted for me or against me...I'm going to give you hope. We're going to choose science over fiction. We're going to choose hope over fear."
@JoeBiden
Let's get this done:
"The words of a president matter...And when a president doesn't wear a mask or makes fun of folks like me, then you know, people say, well, it mustn't be that important."
@JoeBiden
Reminder that the president had COVID-19:
"We can end this era of division. We could end the hate and the fear. We could be what we are at our best. The United States of America...We can do this."

@JoeBiden
laid out his plans to help students, including:
- immediate $10,000 forgiveness of student loans,
- double Pell Grants,
- free education for anyone making under $125,000 for four-year college,
- forgive student loans for those in public service
Herschel is only 13 and can't vote in this election or the next one, but he's made THOUSANDS of calls to voters.
Do the right thing and the right thing to do RIGHT NOW is to help people vote, take it from Herschel:

"I promise you this, beginning on January 20th Vice President-Elect Harris and I are going to do everything in our power positive ease the burden of health care on you and your family. I promise you that. I will protect your health care like I protect my own family."
@JoeBiden
GET MITCH UPDATE: We've raised $30 MILLION for the most flippable races.
Now, we're sprinting for the one and only 🏍
@GaryPeters
🏍
If Gary loses his seat, we lose our chance of flipping the Senate and taking the gavel away from Mitch McConnell:
@MikeEspyMS
Here's why:
1. Espy is polling within 5pts of Senator Hyde-Smith
2. He raised double in the last 48hrs then what Hyde-Smith did in all of Q23.
3. MS electorate is 40% Black so investments in Black turnout (an Espy focus) are key to winning
"We have it in our hands, the ultimate power. The power to vote. It is the noblest instrument ever devised to register our will in a peaceable and productive fashion...No matter how many obstacles are thrown in our way. Because once America votes, America will be heard."

@USPS
says you should give mail in ballots at least 14 days round trip. No guarantees.
So if you plan to vote by mail, election day isn’t November 3rd.
It’s October 20th.
Or sooner.
Don’t be one of the *tens of thousands* of people whose vote wasn’t counted in 2016.
2 more pro-choice Senators + a pro-choice House = Right to an abortion is federal law.
BIDEN: "I know it's frustrating & it made a lot of people very angry. But the truth is...women of America can determine the outcome of this issue" in November.

Boom. A notorious $20 million.
To everyone who donated in honor of RBG, thank you. 44 days left to go. Let's get the job done.
Michigan's Secretary of State reports more than 7,000 people took advantage of same-day registration today, thanks to a voter-approved ballot petition in 2018.
Trump won the state by less than 12,000 votes in 2016 👀
... And statewide over 7000(!!) eligible citizens registered and voted today. Kudos to the clerks and election staff working overtime today to process those new registrations and ensure every vote cast is counted accurately and securely. 🙌🏼

#ICYMI
At least 58 Texas Democrats are fleeing Texas today, and risking arrest, to block a vote on Republican-backed voter suppression bills during the special session. They are expected to fly to D.C. to rally Congress around passing federal voting legislation.
