Being an informed voter and voting is a precious right that we have in this country. Midterms matter and when it comes to midterms the Democrats, historically, have a poor record. Do not despair, as the saying goes, when we vote we win!
At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, this may be the most important election in recent history. Why? We are dangerously close to the Republicans controlling enough state governments to where they may successfully pass constitutional amendments.
Thanks to the renewed energy stemming from the 2016 election we are seeing an influx of promising newcomers in races where historically we have been complacent. The most important way to support them is at the ballot box!
