Because elections are won with numbers

Hi Friend,

This will be my last email before the writ drops.

Ideas have gotten us this far--inspiring ideas, powerful ideas, ideas that
helped elect Greens from coast to coast, make national headlines and move
into third place in the polls!

Ideas have grown our movement to the point where we're neck-and-neck with
the old-line parties in key ridings.

But now I need to make sure we have the winning numbers.

BECAUSE ELECTIONS ARE WON WITH NUMBERS -- how many undecided voters we
reach, doors we knock, calls we make, lawn signs we put up. And most
importantly, how many conversations we have.

IN NANAIMO-LADYSMITH, THE WINNING NUMBER WAS 35,000 PHONE CALLS. IN GUELPH,
IT WAS 500 VOLUNTEERS. IN CHARLOTTETOWN-BELVEDERE, IT WAS 150 LAWN SIGNS.

Every riding is different. Every community has different needs and
potential. I've seen it. I've been there, in town halls with Elizabeth May
across the country, or talking with our local volunteers about the issues
that matter to them.

AND , I’VE SEEN ELECTIONS WON OR LOST WITH A HANDFUL
OF VOTES. AND THIS ELECTION, WITH SO MUCH AT STAKE, WE CAN’T LEAVE ANY
GREEN VOTES ON THE TABLE.

We can make history this October. We can send a team of Green MPs to Ottawa
to usher in a new era of Canadian politics, to root out corporate
influence, to solve the climate crisis, to renew our democracy. But it will
take all of us.

How far we go this October depends on how many hands are raised to
volunteer, how many of us talk to our neighbours about the climate crisis,
how many donors chip in what they can.

Here are some of the numbers I'm focussing on this week:

* 283 confirmed candidates
* 338 campaigns across the country
* Hitting our critical one million dollar campaign goal by election day

Will you help me make sure it all adds up to a breakthrough in October?

P.S. In a movement born from ideas of honest, ethical leadership and
evidence-based decision making, it may seem strange that in the moment that
matters most, it all comes down to a numbers game. But we need to focus on
the numbers today so we can make the ideas of tomorrow. Can you support our
candidates by volunteering on a campaign, making phone calls or knocking on
doors? [1] These are the winning numbers that will help us move Forward
Together!
