Not content to watch the President commit political suicide Jadyne and I have joined a group committed to encourage people who haven’t voted to vote, an act that we hope will expedite the process. Here is an email I received from them today.
Every day Jadyne addresses ten envelopes slated to go to people who live in states like Florida and Arizona where the stakes are very much up in the air.
Here is a list of twenty from AZ. We are writing to each of them.
My favorites are Melina Molina and Ivory Wigfall. Someone in Florida lives on a street named “Dwellwell.”
No surprise. Not many white names here. And the addresses are from several cities and communities in Arizona.
Here’s s sample letter:
I write (print) the recipient’s name after “Dear,” then write a sentence of two after the word “because.” I like “my vote—and yours—matter,” and “without voting we lose our democracy.” I sign the bottom with the name “David B”, and Jadyne fills in an AZ return address on the envelope,
We pay for the envelopes, the paper, and the stamps. All go out in early October. We would be remiss if all we did was rant.
