YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!  YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES.

Oh thank god

Now everyone prep for the inevitable re-try in a few months or a year

Know this, the House will not vote on this. The only way the House will vote is if the Republicans and Paul Ryan no longer hold majority in the House. They ONLY WAY THAT HAPPENS is if they are voted out in November. The earliest we can repeal the FCC ruling is in January 2019. Get registered. Go vote.

^^^ This. Read the fine print. This is a victory but the war is far from over. REGISTER TO VOTE. get your friends registered. Vote in November. It’s the only way.

I read something today that said that voters 35 and over are split 50/50 on which party they’ll vote for. People aged 19-29 are overwhelmingly progressive. So for the love of god, get out there and vote – midterms really matter. I can’t make idiots my age change their minds, so I beg of you, for your own survival, please vote, young people.

This is VERY ENCOURAGING

But do not take this to mean it’s a sure thing!

Get out and vote democrat…remember, only by everyone who is able to vote getting out and voting can we make this forecast a reality…do not think any seat is a sure thing for the Democrats and also don’t think any seat is “Unwinnable”

There are no sure things and there are no “Unwinnable” seats…a Democrat just won in Alabama for the first time in DECADES and it was thanks to a huge number of people getting out and voting…if everyone who wants the Republican infection GONE from the House did the same then this forecast CAN be a reality!

keep in mind, people thinking that Trump would never win and not voting is exactly how he wins. 

be vigilant, vote on every election you can, be involved, that’s how you can make a change

every vote counts, every. single. one. 

^ All of this!

and ffs don’t ‘vote your feelings’ – we can have the debate about third party candidates sometime when there’s some wiggle room. right now we need all the non-trumpkins we can get. vote for someone who has a good chance of winning.
