It's National Run for Office Day!
For 4 years, Run for Something has been operating to fulfill one incredible mission:
Build sustainable, lasting power for Democrats by electing diverse, young progressives to state and local office.
That mission begins and ends with people like you, John.
Have you ever thought about running for office? As a member of this community, I hope you have. We all wonder if we could be doing a better job than the status quo from time to time. Question: What stopped you from turning thought into action?
Are you unsure what to run for? Run for Something can help you with that right now --
go to RunForWhat.net
Are you worried you're not qualified to seek elected office? You
are. Donald Trump didn't have a shred of qualification and lived an extremely privileged life -- you are better than he was. You can run for a school board seat, your county commission, or your state legislature.
Just go to RunForWhat.net
Have no idea how to get started or what campaigning entails? Run for Something and our 1500 alumni can train, support, and advise you.

Scared you'll lose, and it'll be a waste of your time? What if you
win? And even if you don't, why shouldn't you run again or for a different office? So many great elected officials and political leaders have Ls on their records.

Whatever your reason is, I promise that we've heard it before. You -- yes you, John, I really am saying this to YOU -- CAN and SHOULD run for office. The next generation of leaders needs to take the reins at some point, and we think you should be one of them.
And don't worry, Run for Something will help you run a strong campaign, one that can win.
