Countdown to Midterms! Your Vote Makes the Political Revolution a Reality this November 6th.

This year's midterms could be one of the most important elections in recent history. Since Donald Trump won the general election in 2016, America’s state of being has taken a considerable turn for the worse.

Our healthcare premiums continue to rise, in some cases as high as %10 , as private insurance companies continue to take advantage of the American public.

Trump and the GOP have caused the end of the DACA program, leaving hundreds of thousands of children of immigrants unprotected. He also ramped up immigration enforcement. There have been 143,470 arrests for violations for the year ending in October — a 30% increase since last year.

Mass shootings seem to also have increasingly higher numbers of victims, and Trump refuses to budge on guns, blaming anything but. The problem, plain and simple, is that the U.S. has easy access to guns, and that we have the weakest gun laws of any other developed nation : but you won’t hear that from the President.

Even though it’s been a rough two years, the next two don’t have be as bad! We can elect enough progressives to make a difference in the House and Senate to combat against Trump and the GOP, and keep pushing for change in every state in America.

That’s why, this November, it’s imperative that you go and vote and make your voice heard!

All 435 House seats are up for election, as well as 35 Senate seats!

If you haven’t been keeping up to date with what’s going on the progressive world, don’t worry! We’ve got you covered.

Political Revolution has been working hard the last year to keep track of every single race (yes, every single one) where progressives are running, and we’ve compiled lists of candidates endorsed by progresive groups (like us, Our Revolution, BNC, JD, PCCC, and DSA) in every single state ! These progressives have fought through the primaries and emerged victorious — now all you have to do is vote for them next Tuesday!

So here’s what you need to do to vote in your state:

  1. Look up your voter registration
  2. If you can, vote early!
  3. If you can’t, look up your polling place so you know where to go on Tuesday, November 6th.
  4. Lookup your sample ballot and note the names of the candidates.
  5. Cross-Reference our Endorsement Page on Reddit or our Website !
  6. Vote, Vote, Vote!

Raise your voice and mark your ballot — this November could make all the difference.
