OMG - this made me laugh because of all the relatable lines, especially the one about Heather Cox Richardson and Robert Hubbell. But I do have to make an amendment: Our Maine Secretary of State, Shenna Bellows, is a badass warrior. She's the one who's pioneered Rank Choice Voting, she's the one who said out loud that Trump has disqualified himself for being on the ballot, she's the one who, because of the Trump call, has had to endure swatting and life-threatening phone calls. She's a hero in this state. Get to know her and you'll agree!
Thanks, Vicky! I love hearing about badass secretaries of state. I wanted to work on these campaigns more this year, but got distracted. Imagine if Florida or Mississippi had a secretary of state who was interested in enfranchising voters? Any ideas for an article The Grassroots Connector could publish about how grassroots groups are leveraging the work of the ME SoS? I'd love to write about Bellows' work, but need a volunteer/grassroots angle.

Is there a Dana Nestle that’s a SOS as well as Dana Nessel the AG of Michigan?
Ack. Good catch! Will correct this.
Auto correct strikes again!
