Commit to doing at least one or more actions each week between now and November 3. Here are a few options you can do at home, with friends over coffee or wine, or out in the street loud and proud. Have more ideas? Let us know and weâll add them to the list. Weâre working on a way for you to record your time or number of items (postcards/texts) and turn them into a collective graphic to demonstrate the awesome power of ILNH activists, so keep track and weâll let you know when thatâs ready. (PS – weâd welcome any among you of the technologically inclined that have a great idea how we can do this efficiently).Â
As the shoe guys said, JUST DO IT!Â
- Payback project: Indivisible.org – focuses on nine vulnerable Senate Republicans up for re-election. If youâre not in one of the nine Senatorsâ states, you can sign up through the project to text voters for GOTV, donate to the ad campaigns that will run in those states
- Resistbot: Text âResistâ to 50409 and Resistbot finds out who represents you in Congress or your state legislature, turns your text into an email, fax, or postal letter, and delivers it to your representatives.Â
- MoveOn Texting – Be social and/or independent; ILNH is organizing we-text Wednesdays – a weekly MoveOn Texting social opportunity. Weâre still working on the location, and if youâd like to host one, contact Kati Kertez. But donât wait, you can easily knock off hundreds of texts in as little as 15 minutes anywhere you have an Internet connection (I used to do mine while on conference calls). Â
- Vote Forward: Letters to Voters – Vote Forward is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization. Our mission is to empower grassroots volunteers to help register voters from under-represented demographics and encourage them to vote. We build tools to enable Americans, wherever you live, to get unlikely-to-vote fellow citizens to the polls.
- Postcards to Voters: Send friendly, handwritten reminders to targeted voters giving Democrats a winning edge in close, key races coast to coast.
- Change the Conversation Together: Deep canvassing focused in Bucks County to flip the district, but these skills are important for anyone whoâs serious about getting Democrats elected. Share values instead of talking points to find common ground. Contact Susan Shapiro or check the Change the Conversation Bucks Facebook page for upcoming workshops and trainings. Â
