Dan Gillmor

If you are a California voter, I implore you to back Proposition 50, a hopefully temporary measure to block the Trump-Republican scheme to rig U.S. House districts for perpetual GOP control.

They declared war on democracy. Vote Yes. A no vote gives them what they want.

I voted at my county's Vote Center last week. Check your county's website for info. Everyone's also supposed to be getting mail ballots.

This is a crucial vote for America's future, if we are going to avoid dictatorship.

@pomCountyIrregs @dangillmor Afaik they are open already… I dropped my ballot into a collection box last week, and this morning I got a txt msg ack that it had been received and processed.

@UweHalfHand @dangillmor I think the collection boxes are—I favor the one in front of the LA Library branch on Moorpark near Whitsett. But the sites with people are what I'm talking about. I recall my sample ballot as saying they open Saturday the 25th.

@pomCountyIrregs @dangillmor Got it! Yeah, I avoid places with people present 🥴 I’m an old curmudgeon I guess!

@dangillmor it's not hopefully temporary. It is temporary.
