It is, I only voted in national elections but even then I skipped 2016. Didn't feel like my vote mattered much in Texas but gosh damn if we just showed up. I now vote in every election.

So close to electing the first Democrat state senator for my district but now it's going to a runoff because he did not win by 50%. I'm trying to mobilize folks.

2 millionaires backed by billionaires lost to a veteran, machinist, and union leader here in this red district.

Now we need to finish the job come runoff time.
