My mother never advised me how to vote, but I learned, from her, the importance of the vote, that it was a path to hope, always, whether long, short, narrow or winding. She died last year: this is the 1st general election since 1955 without her 'X'. If you can, please vote today.

We've just hit send on our newsletter... Not on the list or didn't receive our email? Read the latest here: https://t.co/zk6DekaG8A
