My unique way to help us win in November

For the first time, I chose to go 'all in' and volunteer officially years after my one and only day as an Obama supporter long ago. In 2020, I chose to download the Joe Biden app and reach out to 1000 potential voters in Philadelphia as a goal on my own.

This year, since I started earlier, I thought that I might triple that, which seems like a heavy lift. I could use some added help to reach the goal of winning in November.

If possible, consider doing what you can to support the better cause of a more civil, caring, and compassionate society.

1. Support two comments a day that inspire the best in us

2. Consider adding a subtle persuasive comment in a local Google Map review of a store you like

Examples:

1. Inspirational post (notice how it ends)

2. My comment on a hip hop YouTube clip

Remember to VOTE 🗳 to hit the best NOTES for a future that represents all of us.

Every school board seat matters, too, for educating our kids for the future.

Signed,

A Super Voter in Pennsylvania who consistently votes to get local potholes fixed. I love driving on a smoother road. 😊

🦸🏿?♂️🍎🎖

Who you vote for remains your choice, if you choose a better life at all. 👨🏿?💻

3. Comment on local Google store review
* (Janelle Stelson may defeat MAGA candidate Scott Perry in Central Pennsylvania)

Janelle Stelson's comment on her Instagram post brought me here to find out more about the store she visited. Although my last 'real' ice cream indulgence occurred years ago due to following physicians orders, I wholeheartedly appreciate the smiles others get in tasting their scoops of happiness.

Most importantly, I appreciated even the comment that the owner wrote about trying to 'do the right thing' consistently as a business catering to customers. For that, you earned my 🗳 vote for integrity.

Now, hopefully, other adults will follow suit and do the same, regardless of political affiliation. Honesty still matters, folks.

I think subtle works best but trump just makes me sooo angry!

I noticed similar feelings your post mentioned a while ago and had to adjust my emotional response to create and sustain the peacefulness that supports personal goals. I leave the daily angst for other side to deal with in their lives. 🍎🫂🍫

A nature walk a day keeps the other side away . . .
