Now is the time to do what we can to be sure that democracy is defended on election day. Voting is our highest priority, but there is more you can do.
That’s why skilled volunteers at The Union have spent countless hours preparing materials you can share with other voters; fact sheets and social media graphics. You’ll find voting fact sheets by state and social media graphics about deadlines, voting information, and other topics. Many of the resources are organized by state.
Downloading this information is easy when you visit the The Union - Shareables website. Just click on the navigation links at the top of the page labeled “Existential States” and “Themes”. New materials are added each weekend.
If you and every other person who reads this message shares just two of these items, imagine the difference we can make. Defending democracy isn’t complicated, but you (and I) need to take action today.
Thank you for being a democracy defender. The future will thank you.
If you’d like to do even more to help defend democracy in the US, we invite you to join The Union.
Thank You for sharing this post today and will reStack ASAP 🌊
Thanks for what you do!
Action step for folks here - We must help get more Democratic voters to the polls in swing states! Let’s support those tireless folks who are door-knocking, phone banking, & text banking till - and including - Election day! But how are those likely Blue voters located?
Field Team 6 is the only organization that identifies likely Democrats, gets them to register, then nudges them to vote. Their approach gains new Democratic votes for only $2.24 for 1 new vote - a fraction of other organizations’ cost-per-vote. But they need names, addresses, and phone numbers of who to approach.
Democrat Janet Protasiewicz was elected to the Wisconsin Supreme Court in August 2023 - as a direct result of Field Team 6’s outreach.
Even now, there are a dozen states where you can still register to vote - some even on election day. And in any swing state, volunteers can still go door knocking, phone banking, & text banking. As little as 10 or 20 votes per precinct can enable Democrats to win.
Join me in donating at https://www.fieldteam6.org/ Their research identifies the people who doorknockers and phone bankers need to approach.
To check out Field Team 6’s impact, see https://www.fieldteam6.org/_files/ugd/c03fe4_ca47cde71737499492a602eb46bf0aba.pdf - They have a very impressive track record of getting more people to vote Democratic.
Who will help? Can I see a show of hands? (I’m too tired to go door-knocking - I’ve sent out 500 postcards in the past several weeks.)
