Dear MoveOn member,
Wow! Our Taylor Swift-inspired "In My Voting Era" T-Shirts have been flying off the shelves by the thousands since Taylor endorsed Kamala Harris for president last Tuesday! We will sell out within the next few days, so don't miss the chance to claim one of your own by clicking right here!
If you're reading this email and you don't think an endorsement from Taylor Swift matters, here are a few stats to remember:
In her endorsement, Taylor Swift said:
"I'm voting for Kamala Harris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos."4
She's right. And she's right to fear the misinformation that's being pushed out by Donald Trump and his party with the intention to confuse and mislead voters. It's up to all of us to go into the world to talk about what's at stake: health care, climate justice, our freedoms, the future ahead of us and beyond.
Taylor Swift's fan base consists mostly of 18- to 35-year-olds, which just so happens to overlap with the key voter demographic that MoveOn is laser-focused on turning out in this election. We call them "surge voters," often younger voters who became active in politics after 2016 but have not voted consistently since. Data shows that they could be the difference between winning and losing this November, which is why MoveOn has set a goal of contacting 1.5 million surge voters in battleground states and districts before polls close on November 5!
If you're sick of running as fast as you can, wondering if you'd get there quicker if you were a man, we have a question for you:
Thanks for all you do.
–Kelly, Elizabeth, Emily, Oscar, and the rest of the team

Want to support MoveOn? The MAGA right is declaring war, and Project 2025 is their battle plan. Project 2025 threatens our rights, attacks communities of color, hurts middle- and working-class families, and undermines our democracy. But we will not back down or let Trump steamroll our nation.
Will you donate to power MoveOn's election plan, stop Trump, and ensure Project 2025 is never enacted?
