It really does make a difference, and that's why there are so many people out there canvassing, and phone banking, and postcarding, and getting involved.

Yeah, I guess the question is, if it's, if you see the election coming and you're not feeling well prepared, and maybe you've got a lot going on personally or professionally that prevents you from feeling prepared, at the very least, I do think we need to prioritize and put our focus on those issues that we're most interested in voting on.

You know, if you, if you just can't be prepared for everything, at least feel prepared for the things that you care deeply about.
