All of us need to work very hard every single day to get out the vote in every election up and down the ballot. We need to find ways to get young voters registered to vote as soon as they turn 18. That’s what groups such as “Voters of Tomorrow” are doing. Please follow @marcelias and @democracydocket on Post.News or Twitter and subscribe…

ballotpedia.org to learn more about local and special elections in your state and community. There is an election in Virginia for a vacant House seat: The election is February 21. The Democratic candidate is Jennifer McClellan. She needs our support!
Not quite as pessimistic as dear Joyce Vance because I have learned from several wise people to always reserve space in your thoughts for the unknown. Linda mentioned we will probably pick up another House seat in February. I suspect we will gain more.
What we need are experienced leaders for this coming battle, and discipline. We are fortunate to have them in the Executive, Senate, and House. We are blessed to have Speaker Jeffries and Rep Pelosi standing or sitting nearby.
Everyone participating in Joyce Vance newsletter has a common goal to preserve our democracy. I believe we will succeed if all of us join and work daily to achieve it.
Thank you.
Hi Linda, I see you're from Evanston. I live in Skokie. Neighbors!
Palatine, here. My daughter lives in Evanston.
A win for Jennifer Mc makes it 213 Dems in the House next month.
