Remember, things are going to be crazy tomorrow (and likely crazy for some time), but the election isn’t over until *all* the votes have been counted.
We need to strongly and consistently push back against any illegitimate declarations of victory.

Trump told insiders that he’s planning to declare victory if he’s ahead tomorrow night. With millions of ballots needing to be counted in several key states, he would be undermining the electoral process.
Whether he loses by a low margin in some swing states or is absolutely demolished, he’s not going to concede.
This will be the first time in American history that a president hasn’t conceded an election, disregarding the a bedrock of our system: the peaceful transfer of power.

We need to be vigilante and remind people in our circles about the facts. After Election Day is not the time to become complacent. In fact, we’ll need to double down on our commitment to see this through.
If Biden wins the electoral college and Trump starts trying to cry unsubstantiated “voter fraud” or “irregularity” claims, he’s in effect attempting a coup to hold onto power despite the American people voting him out.
We cannot let this happen. We will not be the generation that let our democracy die from fascism.
We will inform our friends and family of the facts and put pressure on public and private leaders to denounce it. The battle is not over until Biden is sworn in.
