@MarvinFreeman @mastodonmigration @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews Except you don’t have it yet, and won’t unless enough other people vote for what’s being demo’d at the convention. So that’s one reason to listen in and/or catch the highlights — to help you sell fellow citizens on it.

@jpanzer @MarvinFreeman @mastodonmigration @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews
Yup. To respond to the same comment: If "I've decided who to vote for" signals the end of the election campaign for you, well, yeah, that's a valid choice. But just so you know, it doesn't have to be, and there are a lot more things you can do if you'd like to pitch in.
