WHETHER YOUR 18 OR 65, IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS TO GET OUT THERE TODAY AND VOTE -- The future of our country hinges on keeping the vote intact, truth, peace, justice and bringing back democracy

MESSAGE FROM SENATOR HARRY REID
Go vote; bring your friends to vote; and call you relatives to make sure they are voting. Wherever you live, there is an important race going on. It might be for the Senate, or the House of Representatives, or for Governor, or mayor. One constant remains: Democrats stand for changing the course and Republicans want to keep things the same both in Iraq and here at home. So if somebody asks you today why it's important to vote Democrat you tell them, Democrats have a detailed plan for a new direction. It begins with six in '06:

1. Real Security including the redeployment of US Forces in Iraq
2. Raising the minimum wage
3. College access for all
4. Energy Independence
5. Affordable Healthcare
6. Retirement Security

[Duchess Note - In regards to #1, I'm not for redeployment, but totally support candidates who say bring ALL OUR TROOPS HOME NOW. Some may agree with me and some may not. Thats okay ... totally cool with that.]
