Today is the most important midterm election in modern U.S. history. So please, read Bernie's note below and take the time to vote today. Forward this email to a few friends to remind them to vote as well.
I want to tell you something that will not come as a surprise to many of you. And that is this:
If turnout across the country is large today, if young people and working people come out and vote, then I believe Democrats will elect a number of progressive governors, state legislatures, will gain control of the House and possibly the Senate, as well.
If turnout is low today, then right-wing Republicans are going to keep control of many of the levels of government they currently occupy.
So our job today, if you have not already, is to vote -- and to encourage the people you know to do the same.
Today’s election is the most important midterm election in the modern history of the United States.
Together, we can put an end to the reactionary Trump agenda and move our country forward to rebuilding the declining middle class. We can create a Congress which stands for economic, political, racial and environmental justice, not for oligarchy or authoritarianism.
Those are the stakes:
Now is the time for millions of working families to come together and make certain that our children and grandchildren are able to enjoy a quality of life that brings them health, prosperity, security, and joy -- and that once again makes the United States the leader in the world in the fight for democracy, human rights, environmental sanity, and for a world of peace.
Today, we have a great chance to advance our cause -- but that will only happen if you make your voice heard and vote.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders
