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, 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!

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, improve voter outreach 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."

Date and Time:

You do not have to stay the whole time - even making calls for just one hour is incredibly helpful! You do not have to know what you're doing - we'll train you up and you'll be phonebanking like a pro!

With so much at stake this election, connecting with our community is more important than ever.
At the conclusion of the final Presidential debate in 2020, join Rep. Sharon Tomiko Santos and friends on October 22 for an intergenerational conversation around their reactions to the debate, and what their priorities are in the final two weeks of campaign season.

The economy both connects and divides us. Join Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, Port Commissioner Sam Cho, and Washington State Labor Council President Larry Brown as we talk about the economy and what recovery from the economic side of the epidemic could look like.
