Feel free to copy/share my message to my friends re: get out the vote.

I just sent the following to all my friends, accompanied by the attached article:
---------------------------------------------

Friends,

I know women who have had abortions because a baby didn't fit in with their life's plan, one's who have had abortions because of medical necessity, and women who have had tragic miscarriage after miscarriage in an attempt to have a baby. NONE of those women were criminals.

Thanks to those who voted for Trump/Pence, those who refused to vote due to "idealogical purity", the Republican ruled Congress, the rigged Supreme Court, and the pending open spot due to Justice Kennedy's looming retirement, this is what our future looks like.

To fight the total destruction of The Constitution, we all must pick a candidate(s) to support and canvas for them! WORK TO GET OUT THE VOTE!!! Work to register new voters. Remind people to take advantage of early voting where they can. Take someone with you when you vote. Offer rides to people who otherwise couldn't get to the polls. Do anything you can to grow the coming Blue Wave into a Blue Tsunami. Outnumber the Russians and their Republican lackeys trying to control our voting system.

VOTE!!! YOUR LIFE AND THE LIVES OF OTHERS YOU CARE FOR DEPEND ON IT!!!
