[ [link removed] ]I VOTED!!!
Dear Friend,
Confession: I really, really, REALLY love voting. It’s a moment of power
when we can imagine a better future for our children -- and then put our
marks on a ballot to help make that better future happen. Voters make the
future. You can make the future. Quite literally. Voters set the
direction, have far-reaching power together, and build our worlds for
tomorrow -- and today is VOTING DAY!!!
Hang onto that feeling of power. Use this moment. Together, we can vote
for a better future.

This is not a normal year. So we have some special voting tips to super
power your ballot casting in the p.s. below! The ways people normally vote
have changed. I loved voting in-person with my parents when I was young --
and now live in a vote-by-mail state (where voting by mail has been done
safely and effectively for over a decade!). This year I decided to vote
early at a dropbox. That moment of marking the boxes on my ballot, putting
my envelope in the inner folder, sealing my ballot in the secrecy
envelope, signing the outside of the envelope, and then dropping it in the
box was a moment of pure joy. Voting is powerful. It's hopeful, fun, and
SO IMPORTANT.
But while I did a happy dance (yes I actually did!) dropping my ballot in
the dropbox, I didn't get a sticker!
We want to celebrate your vote and our votes together. And virtual "I
Voted" stickers are a great way to do just that in a socially distanced,
responsible, joyful way. So this year we made our own. We'd like to share
it with you, and let you share it with others, just like you might with an
"I Voted" sticker that you put on your sweater.

Voted" sticker that you can share with the world!

Thank you for all you do. Moms across this country are busy lifting
democracy -- and the energy of the MomsRising volunteers has been through
the roof. In every corner of the country, we’re helping others to vote and
building a movement for gender justice, racial justice and economic
justice; confirming what we've known all along, that moms reaching out to
other moms is one of the most powerful forces in the world. I couldn’t be
more honored to be on the MomsRising Team.
MomsRising volunteers like you have done SO MUCH this election. You've
sent millions of handwritten postcards to moms who don't always vote;
you're on track to send 20 million mom-to-mom texts by the end of today.
You've shared voting info; reached out in English and Spanish to people on
social media; participated in phone banks, reaching tens of thousands of
people to get out the vote; volunteered in an incredible local Beacon of
Hope Adopt-A-Precinct program; and so, so, SO much more.
This movement knows that voting is powerful, and we'll never stop building
the future that we believe in where everyone can thrive. So use your
voting power today. Get out there. Be strong. Be bold. Be a changemaker.
And turn out the vote!

P.S. Here are some important voting tips & resources to super power your
ballot casting today:
* If you have a vote-by-mail ballot, use our link to find a dropbox near
you and then go put your ballot in the dropbox ASAP. There are
concerns about regular mail delays on Election Day, so find a dropbox
for your ballot and celebrate getting your vote in! *Bonus tip: Read
the instructions on your vote-by-mail ballot TWICE to be sure you use
the envelope properly. Each state has different vote-by-mail ballot
instructions. Here’s that link:

* If you are voting in-person, use our link to find out where to vote
near you and then make sure your voting plan includes some fun: A
special voting snack, a facemask, and a fully charged phone. *Bonus
tip: If you’re going to have to wait in line to vote, make it like a
parade to democracy. Bring snacks to share! (Extra Halloween candy,
anyone?) Maybe even a fun folding chair & cozy blanket! Play music!
Plan ahead to stand in line with friends and family in a socially
distanced way -- and be able to hold line spots if people need breaks.
Plan for fun! Here’s that link:

* If you have kids and are voting, you can entertain your kids while you
vote with these fun activities for kids of all ages. Be a voter, raise
a voter!
