"We don't need perfect political systems;we need perfect participation."
--UFW founder Cesar E. Chavez
What a beautiful message from the late Cesar Chavez and how true. Active and engaged citizens who demonstrate their commitment to our democracy by voting are crucial to bringing about much needed reform in our country. I just want to remind all of you--in case you missed all of my other election blogs--that activist citizens are required to protect all of us against voter intimidation and election fraud. If you observe or experience any voting problems or have questions, simply call 1-866-OUR-VOTE or visit 866ourvote.org. For Spanish, call 1-888-Ve-Y-Vota.

I’m looking forward to an election day when all registered voters are able to participate in our beautiful process without any intimidation or fraud tactics. Once the election is over, we can all take a big sigh of relief and resume our normal hell-raising activities!
take action and GO VOTE TOMORROW!
