Hi, John!
Our Countdown to the Polls Volunteer Rally and Training Call [[link removed]] was a huge success! With the incredible support of our Co-Chairs, Stephen Curry and Lin-Manuel Miranda, and the enthusiasm of our Ambassadors, Tracee Ellis Ross and Loni Love, we laughed, cheered, and felt a renewed sense of urgency. With less than 70 days from Election Day, it’s clear: NOW IS THE TIME TO LOCK IN!
The rally wasn’t just about having a good time, it was a call to action for all of us. As we move forward, the momentum will only grow stronger. So, let’s keep working to get our communities registered and ready to vote — TOGETHER.
Now, let’s take a moment to reflect on some of the things that have brought me joy throughout August:
✅ The When We All Vote team pulling up to #SaisSummerCookout [[link removed]] to register voters!
✅ My new puppy Basil 🐕🌱
✅ Watch The Yard’s EXCLUSIVE new series, "THE YARD VOTES." Check it out here [[link removed]]!
✅ The U.S. men's [[link removed]] and women's [[link removed]] Olympic basketball teams bringing home the gold. 🥇
✅ Our Founder and Co-Chair, Michelle Obama, letting us know, “Our vote is one of our greatest tools for change.” Just look [[link removed]]!
