Well, my friends. This is the home stretch. FiveThirtyEight has kindly put together 8 Tips to Stay Sane in the Final 15 Days of the Campaign ([link removed]) , which are not so much tips as they are Things You Should Definitely Know. We especially like tip #2: don't assume the race is in the bag for Biden. At KCYD, we don't assume -- we put in the work to make it happen.
But actually, the real tip to stay sane is to join any of the following events with your friends. Socialize while effecting change or learning how to effect change!

TAKE ACTION
By today, everyone in King County should have gotten their ballots, which means it is time to GET OUT THE VOTE. In the last couple of weeks, we have talked to voters who aren't sure if they're going to vote for Gael Tarleton for Secretary of State or for Mike Pellicciotti for State Treasurer, and this is our best opportunity to talk to voters and make sure that they feel heard - and that they understand that Gael and Mike are the best candidates in the race!

"Tarleton came up as a senior defense analyst for the Pentagon. She brought that knowledge to bear as Majority Floor Leader in the House, where she passed laws to beef up cybersecurity in our elections ([link removed]) , improve voter outreach ([link removed]) and education, and expand voter access across the state."

"Pellicciotti has never accepted corporate campaign donations and has led efforts to make the Legislature's records open for public view. He also wrote the Corporate Crime Act, which increases financial penalties for corporate crimes by 100 times."
