Think your vote doesn’t count?

Here’s a testimonial from tumblr user @ashikai​ on the importance of your vote in these primaries.  It’s the latest I’ve heard in a string of cases of a candidate winning by a few, or one, votes. Your vote matters.

Ok, seriously tho. This was my first caucus ever and I cannot stress how important it is to show up! TWENTY PEOPLE showed up for my town, plus SEVEN absentee ballots, ok? That’s 27 people. The same size of a normal public school classroom (maybe a little smaller).

When it came time to vote, Bernie won, 22-5 with no undecideds and secured 2 delegates as a result. These aren’t massive numbers people; your vote can and DOES make the difference, especially on a small scale like this.

GO VOTE. NOW.

PLEASE signal boost.  Please go vote.  Bernie needs us.  Millennials overwhelmingly support Bernie Sanders.  Millennials overwhelmingly don’t vote. Bernie has to win the nomination before he can win the presidency.

If millennials voted, he could and would win.  Overwhelmingly, the states Bernie does well in, are states in which young people show up to vote.  Have class?  Talk to your professors.  Most are going to understand.  Have work?  Look up your state’s laws, or check on vote.berniesanders.com to see if you can vote early.  Let’s do this.  #NotMeUs #Bernie2016
