Every week, it becomes even clearer how important this weekly local elections are.
Every single thing Republicans are now implementing at the national level, started at the local level first. So, if we are going to take back our country, we have to take every single election seriously, no matter how small.
This week, there are races in 10 states: AL, AZ, FL, GA, IA, NH, , NJ, MN, ND and SC. And we have a flip opportunity in the IA House, which, if we can pull it off, is very exciting.
So, without further ado, your week in elections!

I have never seen something like this in my life. The election is to recall Commisioner Jason Fridrich…but the only person on the ballot is JASON FRIDRICH
Here’s some info about the recall
If you don’t like the work Jason Fridrich has done, please express your views by voting for a write in candidate instead. It probably won’t keep him from winning, but it’s important for a candidate to know they don’t have 100% support of all voters.

If you have an election Tuesday, please vote!
Your vote is your voice and that voice is your superpower, but only when you use it!
Good! It's vital to focus on the small elections as much as the big ones. Lordy knows how many stories of bad law enforcement or book-banning & bully coddling schoolboards I hear about... and those are just two examples. Local elections COUNT!
Thanks for the work you do for this important topic!
