Call the Election Protection Hotline at 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683).
Normally this is where I say, "Vote your conscience." This year, in light of America's political upheaval, I'm saying, "Please don't saw off the branch we're standing on."

Know yourself. Know the issues. Know the candidates. VOTE.
