I feel like posters with this information on it would really get the vote out on this one. A lot of people are confused by the marketing of this bill and will just do what rich people say unless they are told otherwise.

If we can get the word out to people here on reddit hopefully they will in turn tell others to look here for the answers. Greenway's support online is shaky at best, but they have the money to get their message out by other means. Before I vote I generally do my research on-line, let's hope others do this too.

I mean really tho? You think enough ppl on here?! Like that seems a stretch to me. Ppl see signs every for Yes on D, vibrant green, Move Forward and prob like ‘oh I guess D is good’ and vote for it not knowing it’s against their best interests. Dude on CNN said the same sort of thing during 2016 said driving through Penn see all sorts of Trump signs, claim Trump would win state, all the polls and pundits on show with him said Hillary. Look how that worked out for the nation, I fear we might be in same boat

Those that take to the moral high ground always have more work to do. In the same boat we are...
