I'll be in Raleigh NC.

I have this sense of dread that people won't keep turning out. That they're surrendering to the politics of inevitability and using their energy to get through an authoritarian autocracy rather than to save our democracy.

I'll be 70 this month, so it is easier for me to say I cannot and will not stop trying to save democracy. I will not stop until I either see it restored in my country, or die. Hope it's the former.
