Please, read it all the way through.? ? ? ? ? This story is still developing. A series of polls have just been released showing support for Trump dropping in a number of swing states. At the same time, states where environmental candidates had been trailing climate change deniers are suddenly opening up.
What we do next could very well decide control of the House, Senate, and White House.
Today, we're asking for your help ? but it needs to be now. Tuesday morning, our campaigns team is meeting to assess the resources we have and exactly where we can deploy them.
I hope you'll help, if you can. Please, donate to the LCV Victory Fund today. Your contribution will be tripled up to $250,000 ? [link removed]
In recent days and weeks, our teams have held high-level conversations to decide the direction of our election strategy. Today, we're opening up the details of that strategy to you. It's complicated, but I believe this is the only way we're going to win.
Before and after the COVID-19 pandemic began, we've conducted in-depth research with undecided voters in swing states around the country. What we learned is stunning.
There are large portions of the public that care deeply about the environment but haven't been following Trump's environmental policies closely.
Many haven't heard about the steps he's taken to gut air and water protections. To sell off national monuments to the energy industry. To undermine sound science every step of the way.
It's not that these voters don't care ? they truly don't know. Now, here's the bombshell:
As soon as they do know, their votes shift in a serious way. Our research is showing that after a conversation with these voters, we're generating a swing of 20 points away from Trump.
The way that math works out ? that change ALONE is enough to swing Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin by more votes than Trump won by in 2016.
We've mapped out the most effective large-scale environmental voter turnout program in the country. We need your help to pull it off. Please, donate today ? your contribution will be triple matched ? [link removed]
The research is proving: the environmental movement holds the key to this election. The data is there. There's a clear path to victory here ? for the Senate, the House, and the White House.
But to walk that path ? we need you. We're aiming to target three million environmental voters who either voted third-party or stayed home in 2016. We're aiming to go big in key media markets to educate people on Trump's anti-science record. We're preparing to launch a massive Vote-by-Mail program to educate these voters on how to safely vote this cycle. None of this will be possible without your help.
The investments we make now ? when voters are still shaping their opinions of candidates in key races ? will decide this election. I promise you, your contribution will have a real and direct impact on the outcome of this race ? and the future of this planet.
The most effective thing you can do right now to win critical races for the environment is to donate to the LCV Victory Fund today. Every contribution before the end of the month will be tripled, up to $250,000 ? [link removed]
I hope you'll pitch in today ? and ask your friends, family, and neighbors to join this fight, too. We can ? we must ? save our planet and secure a just, equitable future for everyone, but we cannot do it alone.
Sincerely,
Pete Maysmith
