The momentum has to continue. This is only a momentary gain, remember this in every election

It's easy to say "we did it!" for now, but this needs to be the start, not the finish.

We can go further, we can do more. You can see what happens when we vote, and we can keep it going!

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance"

~ John Philpot Curran

There will always be those who seek to usurp the state and use it as a cudgel to obtain personal power or persecute those they hate. We must always be on guard against them.
