I don't think we can rely on the Courts. We are going to have to work the hardest we have ever worked for this nation to continue as a Constitutional Republic. Even harder than during the wreckage following the Civil War--indeed, this is actually a kind of culmination of the Civil War--and we must win at the ballot box in a way that leaves no doubt whatsoever of the intentions of the overwhelming majority of the citizens in this country.

PS: I have stocked up with postcards and stamps, ready to phonebank, I'm on the County Dem board for volunteering rides to the polls or pollwatching or whatever is needed.

What a mountain to climb, project for our lives, and our children, and grands

Good for you!
Can’t do what I could but can do more than I will be able to as age creeps up, so time to make it count,
