Background
Trump and his GOP know they are losing and are desperate to cement their minority rule to help themselves and their donors. That's why they installed their illegitimate supreme court justice.
We must show them we will not back down. Every One Counts and Every Vote Counts. First, we win this election with a landslide. Then Congress passes laws to make sure Everyone Counts. We get rid of the filibuster, expand and reform the courts, and abolish the electoral college.
Call Congress and then Get Out The Vote.
1. Call the Senate.
