Pissed Off By The Orange One’s Actions? Then You MUST Register To Vote!

July 2, 2018• byMichael Strangeways

WAStateRegisterToVote

TICK TOCK!

No, it’s not your biological clock. It’s the Big Ben of outrage telling you to make sure you’re registered to vote in your state so you can vote in 2018 primaries and the General Election on November 6, 2018.

If you’re LGBTQ or an ally, then it’s up to ALL of us to participate in the election process. Especially if you care about civil rights for LGBTQ people, but also human rights for everyone. 

Because, frankly, that Orange Asshole currently illegally parked in the White House with his crooked family and cadre of fascist flunkies and their administration HAS GOT TO GO. And, the only way to speed up that process is to flip the House and/or Senate into Democratic hands.

(If’ you’re LGBTQ and dumb enough to vote Republican, then ignore any pleas about voting. You just need to stay home and think about the error of your ways/lack of common sense and humanity.)

In Seattle and King County Washington you need to go HERE to register to vote. You have until July 9th to register online and until July 30th to register in-person in Washington State to guarantee you can vote in the August 7th Washington State Primary. If you flub up and don’t make those deadlines, then you have until October 8th (online) and October 29th (in-person) to register to vote in the November 6th general election.

In the rest of the country, go HERE!

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
