seen/signed/supported on social media circles and 2 so far through email.

There is a slim to none chance things will turn for him and us, however, other than my one vote, my voice and signature are all the tools I have to fight the bullcrap.

I use them generously.

To do nothing will accomplish nothing.

Please link for petition for people outside of Minnesota. I will sign any of them I can get my hands on. Has anybody heard about protest at Gillibrand's office or anything similar? I am game to do whatever I can before giving up.

Would if I could, but no longer live in Minnesota.

Edit to add: I noticed that the same website this petition is on (apparently it hosts all kinds) has another started by "Conservative Women" calling for Al to resign and it has over 17,000 signatures. Somebody really wanted to get rid of Al Franken. Probably bots.

changing his mind would appear cowardly and spinelessly.

I, and I am sure many, emailed him on Wednesday asking him not to resign. As soon as the "gang of five?" started with their campaign.
