Women's March

  

This is it, John. In less than 24 hours, it’ll be Election Day.

We’ve been waiting and preparing for this day for the past four years. Millions of women ignited the movement to resist Trump when we took to the streets the day after his inauguration — and we believe that women will show up again with that same energy tomorrow to vote in a new administration.

It’s time to finish the job: we must demand that our leaders count every vote, deliver our democracy, and swear in a government of, by, and for the people.

So tomorrow we’re inviting you and everyone in this movement to join us for one final Election Day action. When the polls close, we’re planning a nationwide symbolic action to #ShineALight on democracy and demand that our leaders #CountEveryVote in this election.

John, will you sign up right now if you’re interested in joining us? All you need is yourself, your family, and friends — and some type of strong illumination (a lantern or a flashlight).

Here are the steps if you plan on participating in our #ShineALight action tomorrow:

  1. Sign up now to let us know you’ll be joining the action.
  2. Decide where you will shine your light — your backyard, front porch, or in your window, or on your street.
  3. Pick a time based on when the polls officially close in your location.
  4. If others are joining you, send them a reminder text to bring a lantern or a flashlight, and a mask!
  5. Share your symbolic action with us by tweeting a photo @womensmarch and with the hashtags #ShineALight and #CountEveryVote.
  6. After you sign up, we’ll email you posters to print out, too.

We know that this election night will be unlike any other before.

We’re seeing a much higher early voting turnout, as well as increased mail-in and absentee ballots, meaning that it might take longer to count every vote.

We also know that the GOP will take advantage of any chance they get tomorrow to fake their strength in this election. Any politician can say whatever they want to, but it’s the will of the voters that decides.

By participating in this action, you’ll be showing your determination and your demand that every vote be counted. Lights shining out from windows, porches, front lawns, and everyday households across the country will illuminate the truth: we the people are turning out in record numbers, and we must decide the outcome of this election.

Will you join us and millions of other Women’s Marchers as we show our solidarity tomorrow in this symbolic action?

Let’s finish strong,
WM Organizing Team (Kate, Jess, Jalissa & Cindi)
