The most consequential election in our lifetime is less than a week away.

By now, I expect many of you who are reading this have made up your minds about who you want to be President of the United States in 2021 and to serve you in the US House and US Senate. However, I suspect some of you still need to be convinced of something: To go and cast your ballots.

It is a cruel twist of fate that the most important election we have seen in modern American history is happening during the worst pandemic we have seen in modern American history. The COVID-19 virus has challenged every aspect of our lives – social, private, business, and civic.

Nevertheless, it is vitally important that you vote – and that you encourage and help your friends and family to vote.

It is especially important for you if you want to see President Donald Trump in a second term. If all of President Trump’s supporters turn out – and all their friends and family members turn out – he will win in a landslide so large that no amount of ballot fudging will be able to overcome it. It could also help mitigate post-election resistance by Democrats in Congress (notice: I said mitigate, not eliminate). Democrats spent most of Trump’s first term trying to get him out of office – much to the country’s detriment. If he is re-elected by a large enough margin, enough of the Democrats may realize they should stop #resisting and start governing again.

So, it is important that you all vote – no matter where you live. It doesn’t matter if you think your district or state is a safe for President Trump and Republicans. And it doesn’t matter if you think your district or state has no chance of electing them. Every vote matters – and none can be taken for granted.
