Dear John,
I've been struggling a bit post-election, so I need to rally for GEORGIA.
and of course we all know THIS:
PLUS Perdue and Loeffler are currently self-isolating because they're science-denying cuckoos.
SO! Let's get crackin'.
I'm going to link a bunch of ways to get involved. (I'm sure I'm forgetting some; please email me and I'll add it next time.)
CALL/TEXT:
Jon Ossoff and Rev. Raphael Warnock have phone banks almost every day. Swing Left and DemAction are also doing phone banks; you'll be able to find something that works with your schedule, I promise!
Resistance Labs is texting to GA; they'll have a new batch first thing tomorrow morning. Super easy; tap tap tap and let's win those SEATS.
HELLO LETTER WRITERS:
Help encourage voters from historically underrepresented communities in Georgia to request their absentee ballots for the Senate runoffs. There are 412,000 letters that still need to be written. Sign up at Vote Forward. Printer required.
If you're more of a postcarding type, Postcards to Voters has you covered. Sign up and let's wear that arm OUT. [Note: you do need to be pre-approved for either of these campaigns so please don't wait!] Postcards to Swing States is also doing a GA campaign using their cute post cards. Take a peek.
DONATIONS:
Two recommendations from the campaigns for the most effective places to donate money right now are the Voter Participation Center and BlockPower Vote Tripling. Please check them out.
Of course there's nothing wrong with donating to the campaigns directly! Reverend Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff would be very grateful for your help.
Please support Stacey Abrams and all of her amazing work at Fair Fight and the New Georgia Project. Plus if you're a social media type, she recommends:
>>>>> Connect with friends and family in Georgia to make sure they vote this election—use the app OutVote if you need help identifying people in your network who can vote in Georgia this election.
