These students will be a powerful GOTV force for this November and beyond

[eleny]

They may not all be eligible to vote this year. But I expect that they'll be out in force throughout the rest of this year and help get Dems elected in all strata of governments across the country.

They're redefining the word "awesome".

1. That's what I thought as I watched...

This is how to mobilize young people to get out and vote. And those young people will make the difference in 2018 and beyond...

[ffr]

2. And they are making a statement

THIS is what democracy looks like.

The era of conservative politicians may be coming to an end and a new era of liberal politicians may be beginning.

3. I hope congresscritters are learning from them.

They are 2018's real leaders.

4. Most teens probably assume that no one cares what they think.

What a wonderful lesson for them!

And for us! I am gobsmacked by their passion!

So many adults try to write off young people as selfish jerks. What an awakening for all of us!

5. We need some college students to join them.

We need them energized as well.

6. College aged people always come to our door during campaign season

I expect they'll continue.

But I think you may mean for demonstrations and gatherings at legislators' offices.

7. Yes. We live in a college town

So we do see them.
