Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Electoral College Electors: Urge Electors to Vote for Clinton

[LZ (lzheng]

I want to thank Sharon for sticking her neck out and sharing these petitions. 
I’ve personally forwarded it to all my friends and family, many of whom have 
gone on forward it to their friends and family. 

I personally think this is a great forum for sharing ideas and issues that have 
broad, real-world impact. Speaking up is a vital part of being a community 
member and being an engaged citizen.

Please just ignore the petition if you don’t want to participate or disagree.
