Some of these elections are literally going to turn on a dime.. every vote counts.. and even if we do not get all our canidates elected.. the sheer numbers we can turn out will inform who ever does get in office that they have this other contingency to deal with and they do not have the freedom to be nutsy fagen..

According to the comparative 2014 v 2012 numbers in Nevada (627%).

In fact, the Nevada election would be over already if we had the 2012 early voting numbers. Imagine that! 5 days and the election would be a landslide for every democrat/progressive initiative on the mid-term ballot.
