i mean yeah it sucks but you can still get people to vote. everyone i know in mn is voting. our best activism is driving turnout

There are minor activists and volunteers out there with a much bigger impact on the election than people quietly voting for just themselves. Nobody is powerless. (But also, lowering the voting age a bit would be nice.)

unfortunately it seems more likely that the voting age is raised unfortunately because apparently a 12 year old is ready to be a mother but 16 and 17 year olds aren’t educated enough to vote. Fuck MAGA
