Hi John,

All I can say is WOW! The When We All Vote community is truly incredible.

Even as the coronavirus continues to upend our daily lives, tens of thousands of you joined us virtually on Wednesday for our first ever Voter Registration #CouchParty. The truth is, we started planning this event a week ago with the goal to contact 50,000 voters.

I'm thrilled to say we exceeded all our expectations and the final numbers are in! In four hours Wednesday night, we texted over 400,000 voters -- smashing our original goal eight times over.

From Tracee Ellis Ross and Lin-Manuel Miranda dropping into our kickoff call with volunteers, to DJ D-Nice spinning hits all night long from his Instagram Live and Michelle Obama keeping us fired up throughout, it was a special night.

Even during these uncertain times, we showed our strength and resilience by coming together virtually to make a difference. But you don't have to take my word for it, here's what some of our incredible volunteers said that left me feeling inspired:

"This is such a positive, timely, and lovely virtual event. With all the madness that's going on in this world right now, this was so needed." -- Patricia M.

"I genuinely had so much fun doing this! I am 17 years old with plans to be a politician. This right here is what it is all about! This made me find purpose again (after my school closed and I felt I lost everything). Keep pushing guys on behalf of my entire generation. I thank each and every one of y'all!" -- Kevin K.

"I need to be honest -- with all that's going on, I haven't been too hopeful about things -- until tonight -- this is really incredible. Thanks When We All Vote, DJ D-Nice, and everyone else for all your amazing work!" -- Jamie M.

The entire When We All Vote team was blown away by the response to our Voter Registration #CouchParty. It's safe to say we will be doing this again, so don't worry if you missed out this time around.

I hope you will work with us in the coming weeks and months as we continue to change the culture around voting, and increase participation in this year's critical elections and for all elections to come.

Thanks so much,

Kyle
