Coronavirus chaos in Georgia, Wisconsin a 'warning sign' for Democrats - Politico

John,

It really feels like the country is starting to wake up to the urgency around the dire need to pivot to vote-by-mail. It's like Groundhog Day with voters in Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada, and South Carolina being forced to wait hours in line for their voices to be heard.

This is unacceptable and exactly why we created Vote From Home 2020. I truly believe that grassroots power can solve this problem. With your contribution, we'll send mail-in ballot applications directly to voters in swing states so we can avoid putting voters' health and right to vote at risk. [[link removed]]

We are up against a clock and every day that passes makes it less likely that "dual-risk" voters will be reached.

Vote From Home 2020 is sending appications directly to voters who are the most likely to contract COVID-19 and the least likely to request mail-in ballots. It's critical that we reach these people early and ensure they are able to vote-by-mail.

As Politico reports: "Coronavirus spreads more easily in densely populated urban areas -- where Democrats tend to outnumber Republicans -- and has proved to be more deadly to African Americans and Hispanics, who vote for Democrats by bigger margins. On top of that one-two punch, the threat of coronavirus has led to precinct closures that load up voters at combined polling stations, often in urban or Democratic areas."

These are the exact voters we're reaching out to.

It's time to mobilize now. We need to send applications to "dual-risk" voters and then follow-up with calls and texts. I need you to join me in this fight. Grassroots fundraising is how we'll get the job done. [[link removed]]

I hate that the predictions for access to the ballot box in November are so bleak. I want to be able to send you emails that talk about the thousands of voters who registered to vote-by-mail because of our efforts. That's possible if we reach our grassroots fundraising goals.

Best,
Suzy

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.
