John,
Did you know that the general election has started and that more than 2 million people have already voted?
That’s right—voters have already begun casting their ballots in states across the country (by mail and at early voting sites). They’re choosing to avoid the long lines and crowding at polling places on Election Day, and so should you!
Aside from making it possible to stay at home on Election Day, early voting:
*
Eliminates
the
need
to
choose
between
your
health
and
your
vote
during
the
pandemic
*
Gives
you
time
to
confirm
your
voting
information
and
research
local
races
and
ballot
initiatives
*
Eases
the
burden
on
mail
ballots
*
Enhances
safety
at
the
polls
and
spreads
out
voters
As a community of New Americans and people of color, it has never been more important to make our voices heard, which is why we must flex our political power and become October voters.
When we all vote, as Michelle Obama said [[link removed]] , we “take our power back.” When we all vote, we fight back against white supremacy and the pale, stale, and male establishment attacking our rights and communities. When we all vote, we keep our democracy from hanging in the balance. And, if all of us do vote, we could very well change the outcome of the election [[link removed]] .
If you don't have a plan to vote, make one today using our checklist [[link removed]] . Then, after you've mailed in your ballot or made a plan to vote in-person, let us know on social media and we'll send you this "I voted in October" sticker to add to your photos!

Remember: Our democracy works better when everyone participates. To make it stronger and more inclusive, we all need to vote!
Don't wait until November 3rd—be an October voter! [[link removed]]
Yours in the movement,
