everyone needs to relax. All we have to do is GOTV and all will be OK. I have been warning about this for months now because I see what Republicans have done in Pa. I will never see a Democrat win in my district, never again. Every year Democrats outvote Republicans and every year Republicans pick up seats and I am told by people here not to worry just get out the vote.

What about Texas where the GQP just gerrymandered Sheila Jackson Lee out of her district and into Al Greene's district? So I guess people in Texas just need to GOTV and decide if that vote should be for Lee or Greene? People need to wake up, every GQP controlled state is going to redistrict to pick up numerous seats, in other words the Democratic narrative going around in some districts to GOTV is just a joke because of gerrymandering. I understand we need to vote regardless, especially in hotly contested districts, but saying that "all we need to do is GOTV" is a losing strategy without passing S1.

If S1 is not passed Democrats can set a record GOTV and lose the House, I know this for a fact, I see it every election year in Pa.
