Hey ,

Despite the 80 degree weather, this weekend marks the start of traditional
Get Out the Vote campaigning! Things are a little different this year in
more ways than I can name, but the importance of THESE LAST 10 DAYS OF
CAMPAIGNING ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT AS IN ANY NORMAL YEAR - IF NOT MORE.

We need as much volunteer energy as possible to carry us through the finish
line. The Blue Wave that came over Virginia each year since 2016 shows how
much we can accomplish when we fight hard, and we don’t hold back.

While it looks like Biden will be fine in Virginia [1], and our Senator
Mark Warner is looking even better [2], it is not time to sit back and
celebrate just yet. We have three highly contested House districts in our
state, re-electing Elaine Luria and Abigail Spanberger, as well as electing
the first-ever Black physician to Congress, Cameron Webb.

North Carolina [3] has one of the tightest races both for the Senate, and
the Presidential. Most polls show both races within the margin of error,
and they can use all the help they can get in these last ten days. THE
NORTH CAROLINA YOUNG DEMOCRATS ARE HAVING A GOTV DAY OF ACTION [4]
TOMORROW, OCTOBER 24TH, WITH SHIFTS STARTING AT 9 AM, 12 PM, AND 3 PM.

Florida [5] and Pennsylvania [6], both of which voted for Trump in 2016 but
are trending towards Biden currently, could secure victory in the electoral
college - they have DAILY OPPORTUNITIES FOR BOTH PHONE CALLS AND TEXT
BANKING.

With basically a week until the most significant election to date, I want
to ask you to use your free time to volunteer. I KNOW WE CAN ALL REMEMBER
THE FEELING WAKING UP THE DAY AFTER THE ELECTION IN 2016. WE CAN MAKE A
CHOICE AND TAKE ACTION SO THAT WE DON’T HAVE TO RELIVE THAT FEELING.

The clock is ticking. Let’s get to work.

Maureen Coffey

President, Virginia Young Democrats
