Today is the day. It's the culmination of a process that began months ago w/ early voting, but it is also the day we take a collective breath to focus our energy on healing & reconciliation because 2020 has been relentless...
whether in growing divides stemmed by white nationalism, political manipulation or the racial justice uprisings & reckoning mired in generational trauma, all while struck by a deadly pandemic. We Poderosas, are the salve. We GOT us. #SoyPoderosa
Together, our votes, our voices, and our advocacy are the collective sana sana. Your #VOTE is your power, and it is yours to claim. If you are voting today, remember these KEY facts...

If your voting eligibility is questioned for any reason, demand to submit a provisional ballot. #VOTE
It might take longer to count votes this year & that’s okay- it’s part of the process. Due to health concerns w COVID-19, more ppl have voted by mail than ever before! Those ballots take longer to count. But together we make sure #EveryVoteCounts!
If you experience any form of voter suppression or intimidation, you can report the incident to the Election Protection Hotline, at 1-866-OUR-VOTE, and/or notify election officials or poll watchers. For voting info, search here: https://www.latinainstitute.org/en/campaigns  #VOTE
No matter the outcome our work continues w/ a commitment to health, dignity, & justice. The connections & ancestors that bind us together are the seeds for a future where every Latina/x person stands in their power, & our resiliency is not tied to struggle but to rest & joy.
