My wife, father-in-law, and mother-in-law - none of whom has ever voted before, all of whom will be voting Trump.

What’s crazy is my FIL watches Tucker, Hannity, and “the Five” every night on Fox. And yet still has never voted and didn’t plan to this time (west coast blue state). Not until I took out his phone and asked him to get his ID to register. Took me all of 5 minutes, but if I hadn’t done it, we would have one fewer vote for Trump. Actually 2, because then we got my MIL as well.

You probably have someone in your life who hates the riots, loves Trump and Tucker, and yet still needs your prodding to register and to vote. Prod! Help! Ask!

Ask your friends and family “Are you registered to vote? I can help you do it”

Find out the details for your state and help them through the process. There are still many key states that allow in-person registration through Tuesday, including Minnesota, North Carolina, Michigan, etc.

Prod. Actually make it happen. Pay them a visit and get them moving. Do the annoying part for them. They will be happier and more energized because of it. (So will you).

It doesn’t matter if you think your state is comfortable red or comfortably blue. We need every single vote. We need to blow them out of the water in every metric. This includes the popular vote, because while we all know it doesn’t change the results, it’s huge psychologically and we want that victory too.

Also, the local elections will affect your life way more than the national ones (lock-downs).

Bonus redpill: I’ve been slowly redpilling my usually liberal wife for a while now. She is still liberal in many ways, and I am too in some ways. She doesn’t like politics. I can get fired up and she doesn’t always buy what I’m saying. But the BLM riots and the insane reaction from the brands/ friends she follows on IG convinced her to vote Trump - all I had to do was get her to register. Even then, it wasn’t until Trump’s masterful performance at the second debate when she was actually excited to vote for him.

Go and do likewise! Find that MAGA person in your life and get them registered to vote. You will make a difference. That vote will count.

Totally agree. Plus, they’d actually get to choose their city council
