What will it take to get the next generation to vote?

Millennials have finally, in 2019, overtaken Baby-boomers in numbers, but the billion dollar question is when will this be felt at the ballot box.

Boomers have co-opted the political system, ladling out plenty of public and corporate welfare and helped themselves to generous pension benefits at the expense of future generations.

And, by electing Trump, they have proven to be more xenophobic and racist as a voting block than Millennials, who tend to be more socially flexible and vote Democrat. Almost three quarters of Boomers are white, while Millennials are only 56% white, according to Pew Research.

But, while Boomers vote en masse, Millennials tend to stay home on election day. Only about half have bothered to vote in a Presidential election. Maybe Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can energize her cohort and get them to show up to the polls in 2020.

Last night was a big win for Dems

For Dems who are depressed about last night's outcome -- don't be. It was a major victory and a strong rebuke of Trump. Some very exciting things happened in the suburbs, the Midwest and SoCal. But there clearly is more work to do is the South (TX, FL, TN & GA). So, take the rest of 2018 off, but get ready to gear up and VOLUNTEER in 2019 so we can register more voters and finish what we started last night. bhttps://bit.ly/2RIiUL4

Harder Raises $3.5 million for Campaign

Josh Harder, the candidate I am supporting in the Central Valley (CA-10) for Congress, raised $3.5 million last quarter from 128,000 individual donors. He's not taking PAC money. That is more than anyone has ever raised in that district for a campaign in a full two-year cycle. A lot of Americas appear to have some pretty strong sentiments about this election.
