You know what time it is! We know *so* many of you have already done your part and more (thank you!) Here’s a handy to-do list of last minute pro-democracy moves:
- Vote all the way down the ballot.
- Drop off your ballot or vote in person (find locations here!)
- Check in with your family and friends to make sure they have voted.
- Drive someone to a polling place if you can.
- Take deep breaths.
- Schedule some time to watch the results for the few days after Nov. 3rd evening, somewhere cozy and calming. We can stay calm together.
- Wear your voting swag, like office doggo Bingley.

Our friend Pete wrote a New York Times bestseller!
Trust is essential to the foundation of America’s democracy, asserts Pete Buttigieg, the former presidential candidate and South Bend mayor.
