fleeing  to escape things like violence, war, and poverty at home. Many have risked their lives to get on boats and cross the Mediterranean Sea to Europe. And many have died during the trek. Now, the UN says fewer migrants are fleeing, but the death toll keeps going up. So far, more than 1,500 migrants have died this year. Meanwhile, a new report on

NO EXCUSES

What are you doing Tuesday, November 6th? We want to make sure your answer is "going to the polls."

Meet, 
http://click.morning7.theskimm.com/?qs=4066a0c49dacc627ad592d152a9742c73314e80399fef8ac282871eb9d0af84d6592012bf4c56dd11f705960307bf6e225f2d0473c736666 
No Excuses  - theSkimm's nonpartisan campaign aiming to get 100,000 people to vote in the midterm elections. We're not here to tell you who to vote for, we just want to make sure that you vote. Because democracy.

Starting today, consider 
http://click.morning7.theskimm.com/?qs=4066a0c49dacc627ad592d152a9742c73314e80399fef8ac282871eb9d0af84d6592012bf4c56dd11f705960307bf6e225f2d0473c736666 
this  your one-stop shop to get registered, save important dates to your cal, read up on the key issues and races, commit to vote, and get your friends to commit, too. And there's more coming...

Only around 42% of registered Americans actually voted in the last midterms. We can do better.

This year, there are literally no excuses.

Captain

Not Morgan. It's a group of kicka** Skimm'bassadors helping to activate their local communities for midterms. Because you can't get 100,000 people to vote without a few friends.
