This mid-term is the most important in my memory.
Can you call 3 friends and encourage them to vote?
Can you ask each to do the same?
If we vote, we win.

Forbes could just say "The future is female."

Why vote?
Because voting is an important right in our society. By voting, you are making your voice heard and register your opinion on how you think the government should operate.

Some very flattering news to report - I've been endorsed by @DenisHayes. Co-founder of Earth Day, the man responsible for putting solar panels on the White House, first Director of @NREL... and a true gentleman. Humbled.
