> Hi W Brad,

> Of course you know that a historic Election Day is only five days away. 
> You know that no matter who wins, democracy in America is better and 
> stronger if more people vote.
>
> You also know that you can do your part to alleviate the massive rush to 
> the polls on the big day by voting early.
>
> But not everyone knows to vote early, or even to vote at all.

> I've learned one important lesson when it comes to turning out people to 
> vote. It's not attack ads, lawn signs or robo-calls that get people to the 
> polls; the most powerful force is being asked (or nudged) by a friend.
>
> Will you get your friends to the polls?
