But I'm here to remind you that the election is coming up on Thursday, and it's really important that up until that time, if you want to keep the worst ghouls to have ever lived out of government that

0:21.9

you keep campaigning canvassing and on polling day you get out on vote and also help other

0:26.6

people to get out on vote um in the show description there's going to be some links for which

marginal's mostly to help campaigning wise and all the things you can do to help on polling day
