Happy National Voter Registration Day! Our right to vote is our most consequential right. Honor those who fought for that right by exercising it in every election. #NationalVoterRegistrationDay

Friends: these next few weeks through and perhaps after November 8 are going to be noisy, fueled with lies and misinformation and attempts to mislead voters. Don’t fall for it. Stay focused. Defend democracy. Vote. And do all you can to ensure everyone you know does the same. 👊🏼

When you vote, you create the future, and you honor the work of the past. In Michigan, remember you have the option of in-person voting at your clerk’s office prior to Election Day, and your clerk’s office will have weekend hours. For more details, go to mvic.sos.state.mi.us/Voter/Index/#y…

In Michigan, ElectionDay is the last day to vote; but you have options! Stop by your clerk’s office to vote early by absentee ballot. “The journey’s not over. The work hasn’t ended. Democracy’s dream Must be constantly tended.” Vote as if your future depends upon it! (It does.)

Very informative piece; I encourage you to read it. "...When people understand how exhaustive election security is, and just how many checks and balances are built into the election systems of all 50 states, they are more at ease..."

It’s noisy out there. Vote anyway. We’re living in a divisive time. Vote anyway. Vitriol and lies are drowning out reason, rationality, facts and civility. Vote anyway. There is no perfect candidate. Vote anyway. Save democracy. Vote. Any. Way. Michigan.gov/vote

It’s Election Day Michigan! Still have your absentee ballot? No problem! You can return it TODAY anytime *before 8p* at your local drop box or local clerk’s office. OR bring it to your local polling place and vote in person there. Find out more at michigan.gov/vote

And with that the three “American First” coalition of election denying Secretary of State candidates (MI, NV, AZ) have lost. This is a victory for truth, facts, & democracy. Just as in 2020, democracy has prevailed in 2022 against those trying to disrupt it from within. Onward.

The time for only thoughts and prayers is over. We are in a unique position to take action and save lives. And that’s exactly what we are going to do in the weeks ahead.   We're going to get this done for Arielle, Alexandria, and Brian. We’re going to get this done for Michigan.

Big facts: ✅ Michigan had the highest youth turnout in the country (37%) in 2022 ✅ Michigan was also one of only four states to have a higher youth turnout in 2022 than in 2018. More here. #TeamDemocracy circle.tufts.edu/2022-election-…

NEW: This summer, we reported on the contents of a controversial database used to train generative AI products from Meta, Bloomberg, and others. Many people requested an ability to search it. Today, Alex Reisner delivers. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
