Make no mistake, John: If we don’t do something soon, Trump and his GOP extremist allies WILL seize control of both the White House AND Congress. And with abortion, LGBTQIA+ rights and climate protections on the line, there’s simply too much at stake for Democrats to not take November and their local elections seriously.
The truth is that younger generations are more likely to vote when they see people like them on the ballot: young, progressive and dedicated to the causes we all care about.
That’s why the mission of Run for Something is so critical: We’re training the young, progressive, down-ballot candidates that voters are excited about and ready to show up for on Election Day.
With their help, “reverse coattails” will be THE story of the 2024 election – from local candidates for state legislatures and school boards, all the way up through Senate and House races, people showing up passionately for down-ballot candidates will save democracy by mobilizing Democrats to vote.
But recruiting and training this next generation of leaders to run for office – and push the top of the ticket across the finish line – is powered by grassroots Democrats like YOU, John.
So please, chip in $5 or more right now to help Run for Something recruit and elect progressive candidates who will change the fate of the top of the ticket this November.
