From Virginia to New Jersey to Maine to Washington, Democrats defeated Trumpism in wave elections.  Resist.  Organize. Vote.  It works wonders.

Active Republican Voter Suppression In Today's Virginia Election

The despicable bastard cockroaches are at it again (click on image to enlarge):



If you're a Virginia voter (Democrats are being targeted, of course) and you get such a call, you can check your polling place at the site noted above.

The ACLU of Virginia is also asking you to report any such calls to them at (804) 644-8080.

BONUS:  The greasy, clueless son of f*cking moron Donald "Rump" Trump is tweeting to his father's clueless cult, and it's deliciously ironic:

Vote, Dammit!

Just a friendly reminder to voters in New Jersey and Virginia that there are ELECTIONS TOMORROW, NOVEMBER 7 (just in case you've been ignoring the wall- to- wall advertising in the local media). This is not only for top- line offices like Governor and Lt. Governor, but also for state Senate and General Assembly (NJ)/ House of Delegates (VA), and some municipal offices.  We need to get the Democratic vote out in all these elections in order to deliver a blow in favor of progressive governance and against the dystopian alternatives offered by the Trump/ Republican/ New Confederate/ Plutocrat Party.

The race in Virginia is especially critical and tight, although Democrat Ralph Northam has been polling slightly ahead of Republican "Enron Ed" Gillespie, who's run a particularly despicable, racist, Trump- inspired campaign. The Republican candidates for Lt. Governor and Attorney General are also hard- right reactionaries deserving of defeat.

In Virginia, polls are open from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.  For information, go to the Virginia Department of Elections website here.

In New Jersey, polls are open from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.  For information, go to the New Jersey Department of State website here.

From now on, we need to show up at the polls for every election. Every election.

Quote And Vid Of The Day - Voting

What Digby says:

"We could easily suffer a catastrophe or be handed some big news from the office of special counsel Robert Mueller over the next few months. But the best way to sort this all out is at the ballot box. The only way to know whether Trump's election was a historical fluke, or whether a plurality of Americans really want to continue down this dark and dangerous path, is for the voters to make their wishes known. 

"If the nearly 60 percent of Americans who disapprove of President Trump and his movement don't come out to vote after all this, then we probably deserve what we get."

We've got some elections coming up well before the 2018 mid- terms -- especially statewide elections on November 7 in Virginia and New Jersey, and a special election for U.S. Senator on December 12 in Alabama -- that will be dissected for signs of Trump's Republican Party sinking or surviving.

President Obama said it at a rally supporting Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam's gubernatorial bid in Virginia: "You can't sit this one out." That applies to every election, from local to state to national, from now on.  Here's the clip:
