It takes some dedication to become involved in the political process, mostly because there are so many vested interests trying to keep you from doing so.
Also, I almost guarantee that what I am going to tell you was never covered in High School.
You will not have to register for any party in order to vote for Bernie Sanders in the Primaries if you live in: Alabama,
Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi,
Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas,
Utah, Vermont, Virginia and Wisconsin.
You will have to be
either registered as a Democrat or be Unaffiliated In order to vote for
Bernie Sanders in the Primaries if you live in: California, Idaho, Illinois, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Washington and West Virginia
You will have to be a registered Democrat in order to Vote for Bernie Sanders in the Primaries if you live in:
Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, DC, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Iowa,
Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, New
Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Wyoming
In
many states you have to be registered as a member of that party for 30
days prior to the primaries in order to vote, although that isn’t always
the case. So your best bet is to register now.
Next, find the date of your primary or caucus and vote.
Due to the large amounts of money and time that candidates spend in the
states with earlier primaries and caucuses, many states will spend this
year changing the date of their events. Rules are also subject to change
at the same time.
THE INFORMATION BELOW IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE. CLICK THE LINK FOR MORE INFORMATION AND FOR ANY CHANGES IN DATES OR RULES.
As of June of 2015 here is the tentative schedule for the Democratic Primaries and Caucuses.
As long as you followed the first step and registered to vote, your state will send out information about your voting location and what you need to bring to that location in order to vote.
I know this is tons of information and that it seems super complicated, it is set up that way on purpose. Those in power want you to react:
The powerful are banking on us acting this way.
They know that the Millennial Generation is now the largest voting generation in History. They know that we have the ability to enact change in a way that has never been seen before and they are scared.
This is our first chance to make the changes we want in government. I know it may be difficult to become involved but if we learn anything from our parents generation it should be that a lack of participation in politics only makes the system favor the wealthy and hurt the rest of us.
Let’s not make the same mistakes.
My state (GA) could have its primary as early as this December, so check and double check, don’t be caught unaware! Plus I’m so happy that link explains how the heck not having to register for a party works, I was really confused by that.
Tumblr is my happy place. I normally don’t reblog politics, but with the shit state of the US, I’m going to break my own rule.
Arizona voters: The Recorder’s website is down as of June 19, 2015. You CAN register to vote and register for mail-in early ballots, but with the website down, I assume it’s a matter of either waiting for them to fix their shit (HA) or phoning them. The Recorder’s office is 602.506.3535. You also might be able to go to the DMV, but that’s never fun.
Saw this somewhere else and felt the need to post it cause no one else ever really tells you this stuff
My mom never really noticed. She noticed when she was breast feeding my little brother and blood started coming out instead of milk.
My mom said she felt and saw a little lump in the shower. She was lucky enough she found it at stage 2
My mom had a mammogram. The radiologist thought the spots were just regular calcium deposits.
Turns out it was triple negative breast cancer that had spread to her lymph nods. Mastectomy, radiation and chemo saved her life.
This could SAVE a life.
dont be embarrassed to reblog, this post could be life saving
Signal BOOST and pass it on. I had a breast cancer scare before (luckily it was just scar tissue…) and information like this kept me calm and collected at the doc’s.
As a cancer patient myself, who found my own cancer through a supposed LARPing injury last year, i know how scary it is and how important it is to catch it early. Please spread this around!

A simple guide to picking a great color palette. No matter what the colors are, using colors that are certain distances from each other on the color wheel result in a great contrast of colors. The simple color schemes shown above are used in the most popular logos, posters, websites, paintings, and even movies and television.
Petplan has started the ‘Driven to Bark’ campaign to raise awareness about the dangers of leaving dogs in hot cars. There is also a White House petition which encourages the passing of laws to address this issue. Unfortunately we hear reports every summer about dogs being left inside hot cars. Click here to learn more about the Driven to Bark campaign. Please share!
THIS IS FUCKING IMPORTANT.
If you know anything about me personally, you know how important this is to me.
I will have no problem busting a car window if I see a dog in there.
