Alright! That sucked!

Currently some very scary people are slated to take over two of the three branches of government. 

We can’t do much about the executive for four years, which sucks, but we can do something about the legislature.

In 2018 there are 33 SENATE SEATS UP FOR GRABS, ALONG WITH ALL 435 HOUSE SEATS.

36 of 50  Governors will be up for re-election. 

You need to vote in the midterm elections!  

One of the most productive things you can do right now is register to vote and sign up for an absentee ballot. 

Tumblr is a very young population, and very mobile. We move around a LOT–for school, for jobs, for relationships, etc. So an absentee ballot is great way of ensuring that you stay ready to vote even if you have to move for school. 

Just make sure that you either have the ballot sent to a family member you can trust to forward it to you in the mail, or that you keep your current mailing address updated in the system.

And remember–2018 matters!
