We're ready to flip this state. Jennifer Boysko, Chair of Run Everywhere.

David,

Did you see the news? Though he is a Republican, former Virginia Sen. John Warner is supporting several Democrats for Congress. These include Abigail Spanberger in Virginia’s 7th District, Leslie Cockburn in the “leaning Republican” 5th District, and Sen. Tim Kaine.

We need to vote all Democrats into office, like Jennifer Wexton in the 10th District, whose opponent Barbara Comstock has consistently voted with Trump.

Warner notes that, “It goes beyond politics now… you’ve got to put the nation’s interests and the state’s interests ahead of politics.”

He’s correct. These elections are too important to both not vote or vote Republican. Republicans are simply supporting Trump’s divisive, destructive, and dangerous policies. We have to make sure they don't get elected. The only way to do that is to GOTV.

Please make sure you are ready to vote in THREE DAYS. Bring your ID to the appropriate location before 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 6th. Here’s where you can check your polling location.

We can make a difference together.

Let’s get out and vote!

We're ready to flip this state.

Do you have a plan? Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring.

Four days to go, David. Election Day is right around the corner, and there's no doubt in my mind that this will be the most consequential midterm election in our lifetimes. Enthusiasm among grassroots Dems is encouraging. At a canvass kickoff with Abigail Spanberger, whose narrow race in VA-7 could decide control of the House, the urgency for Democratic leadership in Washington was unmistakable.  In races like Abigail's, voter turnout will be the difference between winning and losing. That's why I also visited the Greenspring Retirement Community Democratic Club and groups like it around the Commonwealth to talk about the importance of getting out every last vote. Now, I want to make sure you have a plan to cast your ballot. Make sure to put voting on your calendar for Tuesday, Nov. 6, and click here to find your polling place. This election will determine our country's future for the next two years and beyond, so be sure to make your voice heard. Thanks for everything you do. Mark

Key elections are dead heats - let's make sure Democrats win! Bob Fertik, democrats.com.

DAVID -

Polls show key races for Governors, Senators, and Representatives are dead heats. That's why Donald Trump is unleashing racist hatred in a desperate and despicable campaign to save Republicans.

Our Blue Wave can still elect Democrats all across the country, but we need to turn out every possible Democratic voter.

1. Use our amazing Progressive Voter Guide to see all the candidates on your ballot and who has endorsed them on both sides. Find your polling place and prepare your ballot in advance for stress-free voting.

2. Download the VoteWithMe app to see which of your friends are registered in crucial swing districts, and urge them to vote for Democrats.

3. Volunteer to canvass your neighborhood with The Last Weekend - it's not too late!

4. Do you need a ride to the polls on Tuesday, or know someone who does?

• Lyft is offering 50% off on Election Day. Enter your zip code for the promo code.
• Uber is offering $10 off a single ride to the polls on Election Day on the most affordable Uber option available in your city. Look for the Election Day code in your app on Election Day.
• Lime is offering free rides in 100 cities on bikes, e-bikes, and e-scooters. Download the app and use code LIME2VOTE18.

5. If you have any problem voting, call 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683) from your polling place to get immediate help so your vote is properly cast and counted. Then report the problem to Trust The Vote which is mapping all voting problems to look for patterns so local reporters can investigate them.

This Tuesday is Election Day - thank you for building the Blue Wave!!
