Hey, John!
From historic turnout to major statewide wins, the 2025 election season was proof that when we show up, we shift what’s possible. Across the country, voters made their voices heard — deciding the future of schools, courts, climate, and communities through local races and ballot measures that will shape our daily lives for years to come.
As we celebrate these victories, let’s remember that real change happens in the days, weeks, and months ahead. Stay informed, stay active, and stay connected — here’s how to keep showing up:
📍 Follow your local leaders: Track what they’re doing and hold them accountable.
📍 Show up locally: Attend community meetings or town halls to make your voice heard.
📍 Volunteer: Join local groups working on issues you care about.
📍 Mobilize: Help friends and family get ready for the next election cycle.
📍 Use your platform: Share trusted info (make sure you’re following When We All Vote on social media), lift up community voices, and keep the conversation going.
Our democracy doesn’t stop between elections — and neither do we. Now, let’s take a look at what’s happening with When We All Vote:
⭐ Our My School Votes Advisory Fellowship is almost coming to a close, and we couldn’t be prouder of the incredible work our fellows have done. This group of young changemakers, ages 18 to 24, from across states such as Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Texas, and more, who hosted voter registration drives, advocated for their communities, and mobilized their peers with When We All Vote this year. These student leaders have shown what it means to build a culture of civic engagement from the ground up.
⭐ We’re closing out our "Local Elections Explained for Gen Z" video series — where we spoke directly to Gen Z voters, breaking down the basics of voting, the importance of this year’s local races, and the power of making our voices heard leading up to Election Day. Watch the final episode as we get ready for 2026.
⭐ Giving Tuesday is December 2, and your giving makes a difference. Your support helps us empower communities, break down barriers to the ballot box, and build a more inclusive democracy where every voice is heard. Together, we can make sure more people have the tools and confidence to cast their ballots and know their vote matters. Start giving early and invest in the future we’re building together!
