“Leave the sticker on.”

Day after Trump election in Seattle WA on #35mm 2017

In November 1962, JFK recorded a psa to encourage American citizens to vote, where he said: “Tuesday is Election Day. I hope every American will vote- will vote for his candidate & party of choice- but vote.”

Ten Terrible Reason to not Vote (and two good ones) 

In which Hank wants to make it very clear that you really should vote if you can. 

Are you registered? http://canivote.org

RockTheVote FAQ: http://www.rockthevote.com/get-informed/elections/frequently-asked-questions/

1. This is how I feel about people who don’t vote: http://distractedbyshinyobjects.tumblr.com/post/35131080728/90-million-cowards

2. Ladies. You could be the deciding factor in nearly every election. Your actual physical BODIES are up for grabs this election cycle more than they ever have been. Fox News doesn’t want you to. THAT’S THREE REASONS TO VOTE.

3. Here’s one more. Women fought for your right to vote. They were arrested, beaten, tortured, and starved for your sacred franchise. Use it.

4. What Hank said about same day registration. California has it. If you live in California (or any state that has it) your excuse is gone.

5. Fucking VOTE for the love of everyone in this country you even remotely care about. Not voting doesn’t just say “I don’t care what happens to me.” It says “I don’t care what happens to YOU.”

And here we are again. (Never have I ever identified with an Onion headline like this one: Nation’s Women Fantasize About Some Future Election That Isn’t Absolutely Pivotal To Their Well-Being)

On November 8th, 2016 every American citizen age 18 and over will have three choices:

1. To cast a vote for Hillary Clinton to be President of the United States.
   
2. To cast a vote for Donald Trump to be President of the United States.
   
3. To be okay with whatever everyone else decides.

Vote, don’t vote, you’ll be making one of those choices on election day. Make sure you’re comfortable with yours.

All the Single Ladies Need To VOTE TODAY.

For one very good, very important reason.

Listen to the android boi and vote today! Detroit: Become Voters

In honor of Election Day, we highlight a series of portraits in the Jewish Museum collection by the artist Ben Shahn, which depicts James Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner. The three civil rights workers participated in the voter registration project Freedom Summer, aimed at registering African-Americans to vote in Mississippi. On the night of June 21, all three men disappeared in Neshoba County; their bodies were discovered after a two-month search by the FBI where they had been buried following their murder by members of the local Ku Klux Klan. Produced as a portfolio for the Human Relations Council of Greater New Haven, Connecticut, these portraits reflect the Shahn’s lifelong commitment to social justice.
