Democrats cannot afford to sleep or be 1 bit complacent in ANY swing state, especially the big 3 (Blue Wall): Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. Register NEW voters who turn 18 this year or did so after 2020 cycle and turn them out to close the deal, women voters are very critical to permanently ENDING the Trump Show!! πŸ’™πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²πŸ™πŸŒŠ

That's why having 5 out of 7 Democratic governors in the 7 swing states is so very important; each Governor controls a political machine that does the nuts and bolts work such as this(and with the Culinary Union in Nevada, it's covered as well); and the Georgia Democratic party has proven its ground bona fides(I'm very confident at this point in the cycle; as long as our side does the necessary blocking and tackling, we should be fine)

It's also equally important that Democrats hold 5/7 of the Secretary of State positions in these states. The alternative could easily have been election deniers and bad actors that either try to cause havoc during election day and the counting and management of the process. On top of that there's already the various attempts to sabotage voters via misinformation with confusing state websites, voter purges and excessively complex, expensive or tedious voter ID laws. It's an easily overlooked position, but the Secretary of State should not be underestimated with their power.

As SOS, it’s like 6 out of 7. NC SOS has no power or official duty on elections. They are vested in the election board, Members being appointed by the governor, 3 from his party and 2 from the other.
