With each passing day, the fall elections gain in political importance — and not only to the people of our country. It’s not wishful thinking to say that Democrats could end up controlling the House and the Senate in November. Such an outcome would strategically strengthen the hand of the larger anti-Trump, anti-Maga, anti-billionaire coalition going forward. Not everyone will see it that way. But what else is new?
The rest of us on the democratic, liberal, progressive, and left end of the political spectrum, it seems to me, should embrace the challenge of turning Election Day into a day of popular mass mobilization to the voting booth, with every bit of the political heft as the days of mass actions that preceded it.
