If we fail to get 3,250 voters to do this, there will only be a Republican available on the 4th house district ballot, covering cities like #Kalamazoo, #BattleCreek, #BentonHarbor, #Holland, #Portage, #Saugatuck, #StJoseph, and #SouthHaven. That Republican is absolutely terrible.

This is the result of the religous right working their butts off for 30-plus years to literally break our country for their fucking righteousness. And mark my words: It's over. It might take a while to get it going, but we're looking at the dust of the religious right.
All of those white guys, let by sleazemaster Newt, who decided that the GOP would benefit more if they just stopped trying to talk with or work with the Democrats. And then they worked to elect stupider and more Christian-zombified people.
All of these nicely-groomed white folks, like #BetsyDeVos, who has harmed so many children in our country. They have taken away education, jailed children, caused untold deaths, and stolen billions of dollars from the rest of us.
