Now here’s a reason to give thx! Despite all, in midterms 9 states & 8 cities passed democracy reforms (most by over 60%!) Here’s our recap of big wins: tinyurl.com/ydxcl7hl & see Boston democracy champions cheering victories! @CommonCause @Demos_Org @Unite4Democracy

In new Congress, Democratic women will outnumber Republican women roughly 5-fold. Overall, women rise to 23% of Congress. tinyurl.com/ycdxty4x In gender equity, we're still way behind European average, 37% women. But, still, progress! tinyurl.com/ybekqwyj @emilyslist

So much is at stake in this election. We have to get all of our people to vote. Research shows people vote when friends ask them to. This amazing app makes it so easy to find & ask the ones who need a reminder. Get it & use it: here: votewithme.us/r/20 #VoteWithMe
In this scary time remember: It’s not the magnitude of the challenge that crushes the human spirit. It’s feeling useless that does us in. So let’s vote & encourage others to vote & join the #Democracy Movement! fieldguidetodemocracy.org/ @Unite4Democracy @DemSpring
