Republicans in Missouri, Louisiana and Texas want to shut down libraries rather than allow books they've banned to be read. One asshole wants to shut down public libraries and have them all run by churches. If that doesn't make your blood run cold, I don't know what would. #LocalElectionsMatter #VoteLocal

From @DempseyTwo (on Bird) thread from Feb 4 ....please read if you can!

"I can’t stress enough how important local elections are. They show just how close each of us is to changing this country. With our vote, we could be bringing about Constitutional amendments that enshrine our values, or eradicate our rights."

The Internet is a microsocm of human interaction. Media companies gorge on the competition, growing ever larger. Walmart sends independent retailers into obsolescence in 100 different marketplaces. Megafarms buy vast swaths of land with their supercrops that encroach on the organics, denuding the seed library. #EatLocal #ShopLocal #ActLocal #VoteLocal

It's #ElectionDay in the United States. Congressional and gubernatorial elections get a lot of attention, but local officials often make decisions that more directly shape voters' lives.
