Dear Friends,

We've only got 19 days left until Election Day! We need your help!

If you can come out this weekend to support candidates, here are some important events:

FAIRFAX CITY - COME MEET

YOUR DEMOCRATIC TICKET!

On Saturday October 21st, at Van Dyck Park at 11 am, we'll have three candidates from the Democratic ticket and Congressman Gerry Connolly on hand to greet voters and talk about what we're up to on the campaign trail!

If you'd like to knock doors with us, there will be a canvass launch right after.

Sign up here to join us!

DEMOCRATIC UNITY RALLY

Albert Vega is running against the very last Republican on the Board of Supervisors - a critical seat! Team Salim is rallying volunteers to help knock doors in this critical race!

If you can stop by, cheer for our Democratic team, grab a little campaign literature and knock some doors for Albert Vega, please register here.

WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO TO HELP

GET DEMOCRATS ELECTED THIS FALL?

If you'd like to help us get the word about Saddam Salim and other candidates on the ballot (esp Chris Falcon & At Large School Board), we are lit-dropping all over the district right now.

What's lit dropping, you ask? It's placing campaign flyers at people's doors without knocking. It's fast, it's easy and it's good exercise! Sign up here to get instructions for how to get started.

CAN YOU HELP US TEXT VOTERS?

We'll be doing a text bank for Saddam Salim and other Democratic candidates the week of October 24-27. We will train you if you've never text banked before so please sign up below for more information.

FINALLY, DON'T FORGET TO DONATE!

Republicans are outspending Democrats more than 2-to-1 on ads! Saddam's opponent, for example, raised the most money of any Republican legislative candidate in Fairfax County. We've got to make sure every Democrat on the team gets elected. Donate below:

Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining"!
