VOTE FROM HOME 2020 [[link removed]]
“COVID-19 has brought America to a halt, and with it almost all in-person voter mobilization efforts” said Suzy Smith, co-founder of Vote From Home 2020. “While we can’t get on buses to swing states or go door-to-door right now, there is a huge opportunity for volunteers to get out the vote with vote by mail”
Hi John,
If this were a typical election year, we’d be prepping for volunteers knocking doors and talking to voters in swing states. But what we’re experiencing is far from normal.
COVID-19 has brought America to a halt, and with it almost all in-person voter mobilization efforts. While we can’t get on buses to swing states or go door-to-door right now, we can still get out the vote.
Vote From Home 2020 is mobilizing volunteers like you from across the country to help voters in swing states have access to vote by mail this November.
Here’s how it works: You donate $25 and we send vote by mail applications to 20 voters in swing states. Then you can use our toolkit to reach out to voters once they’ve received their application to remind them to complete it.
If you want to make voting safe and accessible for voters across the country, contribute to Vote From Home 2020 today. [[link removed]]
We don't know what November will look like -- but we can’t risk what happened in Wisconsin just last month happening again. Long lines at polling places with worried voters whose absentee ballots never arrived; while efforts to expand voting by mail before the election are short-circuited by Republican state legislators and conservatives on the Supreme Court. Holding an election in the middle of a pandemic is a recipe for voter disenfranchisement unless we do something about it and expand vote by mail opportunities as soon and as widely as possible.
We cannot let what happened in Wisconsin happen again. Vote From Home 2020 will ensure vote by mail is accessible and swing state voters can vote safely in November. [[link removed]]
Our work is critical. Donald Trump and Republicans are already trying to limit vote by mail opportunities across the country because they want to use our current public health crisis as a tool of voter suppression so they can steal another election.
We can’t afford to let them get away with this. We can’t let COVID-19 infect us with another 4 years of Donald Trump. Launching Vote From Home 2020 now means we have the time to send vote by mail applications to voters early, working to avoid overloading local election officials and ensure voters are able to vote safely in November.
If you’ve been wondering how you can help in 2020, this is your moment. Support Vote From Home 2020 with a donation to ensure Americans can vote by mail this November. [[link removed]]
Research shows that the likelihood of voter participation increases by up to 7% if voters are urged to vote by mail and reminding voters up to two times to return their ballot increases the probability of voting by 4%.
By directly sending absentee ballot applications with return postage to critical voters, and then following up on those applications with digital ads, volunteer phone calls and texts from folks like yourself across the country, we will expand the number of people voting and directly impact the 2020 election.
We all recognize that this is a time of extreme uncertainty. But we should never question the certainty and knowledge of the importance of this election. We can't let this pandemic prevent us from mobilizing to get out the vote and defeat Donald Trump, and Vote From Home 2020 is building a new model of organizing to provide grassroots supporters like you the tools and resources to do just that.
We can’t leave this election up to chance, and we can’t do this without you. We hope that you’ll join us in our movement and sign up today. [[link removed]]
See you on the (virtual) campaign trail!
Thank you,
Vote From Home 2020
Vote From Home 2020 is a grassroots movement that's making vote by mail more accessible. With a $25 donation, we'll send vote by mail applications to 20 voters. COVID-19 has brought America to a halt, and with it almost all in-person voter mobilization efforts. While volunteers can’t get on buses to swing states or go door-to-door right now, there is a huge opportunity for progressives, especially in solidly blue states, to get out the vote where it counts. By sending vote by mail ballots to targeted states and following up with text and calls to voters, we can ensure the 2020 general election is safe and accessible. Please forward this email if you know someone who may be interested. Our average gift is just under $25 so consider donating that today to support voting rights. [[link removed]]
