As we've learned, national polls are fairly meaningless. It's all about the Electoral College where the margins are still painfully narrow. There is still a disconcertingly high number of older LatinX men supporting Trump, and many Senate races are unbelievably close. I would urge your readers to phone bank for Senate races and donate if possible to House races in Texas. I am heartened that 1) federal courts are largely holding, 2) the FBI took decisive measures against the increasingly radicalized white supremacist groups, and 3) thus far, voter turnout has been relatively promising.

Got my ballot in the mail yesterday! Will vote and drop off tomorrow, hopefully—there are a lot of ballot measures in California and the voter’s pamphlet is like a small phone book. I actually can’t believe it’s almost here, Dean has been giving the countdown for four years and seemed so far away for so long. Really encouraged, but agree we need to donate and phone bank for the Senate races. I think some people who may have Voted for him in 2016 have finally had it with his completely useless response to COVID. I am hopeful! Otherwise, glorious clear day in SoCal. We’ll enjoy one more day of Joe Sudbay, he gets the most funny characters calling in when you’re gone. Stay safe!
