We asked Blue America members and DWT readers to vote on which districts they wanted us to add our new Get Out the Vote ads with the song Matthew Grimm wrote for us. So, right now, besides the ads running in WI-01 and NE-02, districts where Randy Bryce and Kara Eastman are running, we are also running ads in KS-04 (above) and IA-04 (below), where James Thompson and J.D. Scholten are campaigning with every ounce of energy they can muster.These ads aren't really meant to try to persuade anyone to vote one way or the other. Basically, by using careful social media targetting, they are meant to urge local millennials who are already persuaded by the issues Randy, Kara, James and J.D. are running on, to get out and vote on Tuesday. These are all "red districts" with extraordinary Democratic challengers who are progressive stalwarts and where the DCCC refuses to help. I think most political junkies now understand that the corrupt conservative DCCC staffers would rather see a Republican reelected than see a progressive win a seat. If enough millennials do turn out to vote next week, we can thwart Trump, his GOP enablers and a DCCC hierarchy seeking to turn the Democratic Party even more in the direction of corporate corruption. Want to help put up another ad for another candidate? Here's the page for our independent expenditure committee.If millennials vote Tuesday, it's game over for the GOP. And early voting patterns indicate that they will-- and in a very big way. Yesterday a town clerk in Mt. Pleasant, Wisconsin had a panic attack because over 1,700 absentee ballots-- primarily from University of Wisconsin Parkside students who "no one" expected to vote-- were dropped on her desk. Were any of these 1,700 voters polled? No. Do any of them have land-lines? No. Do any of them favor Medicare-For-All, legalized pot, free state colleges, Job Guarantee, student debt forgiveness? You bet they do-- and that's all part of Randy Bryce's platform.The latest early voting numbers from Georgia and Texas for 18-29 year-olds is up a staggering 500% over 2014! You read that right... 500%. If that continues, no Republican seat is safe-- not anywhere, not even gerrymandered monstrosities, drawn to keep Republicans in power. Not even in R+11 districts like Steve King's.
