What's the Plan?
The question on everyone's mind. What's the plan? Who's got the
plan? When will the plan be revealed? I know of no grand plan. I wish I
could tell you there was an assemblage of great leaders who are
preparing a powerful, unified program, but I can't.
Here's what I can tell you - True the Vote is steadily getting after
it. What are we specifically doing? We are doggedly and methodically
working towards answering some of the questions around what happened in
2020. We are nearly finished with a web app and API that will provide
broad access to data and research. We have been sued by and are
countersuing Stacy Abrams' group
Fair Fight Action in a battle over citizens' rights to petition their
government without fear of intimidation or abuse. We are scaling up
across all fronts: new and better website, training, communications,
support. And we would all like for this to happen more quickly, but it
takes time. True the Vote is a small (but determined) lot.
While all of the above continues to come together, there are some core
constructs that I encourage you to consider. Basic truths and to-dos
that apply to us all. This is not the whole plan, but it is surely the
beginning of one.
1.
**Stop pontificating** - Your liberty is under broad assault; to speak
freely, to assemble, to defend yourself, to a free and fair vote, to due
process. Yes, it is really happening. Liberty is swaying like a
punch-drunk boxer. Abandon your ringside seat and get in the ring.
2. Own it - Quit waiting for a fast fix from someone else that will make
everything better. There isn't one. You are here now for a reason.
We all are. We are the rebel alliance. We are the founders of our way
forward. And we have to stick together.
3.
**Fear not** - Fear is expressed in many forms; rage, silence,
sorrow...they all come back to fear. Understand, that is what the
opposition wants. They want you uncertain and afraid. Don't fall for
it. Freedom is written on your heart. Follow that. Be courageous and
kind at the same time.
4.
**Get local, get granular**- Election integrity rolls from bottom to
top. Start at the bottom and true it all the way up.
*
**Search online to find your county elections office**. You can find
the information on the True the Vote website, too, but don't do it
that way...find the answer for yourself.
*
**Call the office on Monday morning**and say
**"I want to get involved in our local elections. Would you please
connect me to whomever I can speak with about ways to volunteer?"**
Listen to what they say. If they give you options to serve, go for it.
If they tell you to call a political party to volunteer, call one.Â
Decide to engage and then do it. Every journey begins with a first step,
this is yours.
*
**Begin a new beginning.**Â If you've not been involved in elections
before, moving forward you will be. That's that. Choose in. If
you've been involved for years, I still recommend making that call.Â
Let it be symbolic of a fresh start from the ground up. I'm going to
do it too. It will be a creation story we all share.
5.
**Pace yourself, but keep up the pace** - There's a lot of work to be
done.
* Volunteering in local elections
* Organizing in a local election integrity team
* Learning your local and state election processes
* Supporting solid election reforms (and opposing bad ones)
* Helping keep your voter rolls clean
* Spreading the word, person to person
* Connecting teams by county and by state
You can look to True the Vote to help with much of this. We are working
to broaden our platform, provide the resources you and your team will
need in the days ahead.
**But no one group can or should do this alone.**There is power in
collaboration.
Do not wait on anything to get started, just get started. On Monday,
make that call. Inch by inch, person by person, let's work together
smartly and steadily to connect across the entire country. If we do
not do this now there may never be another chance.
**If you are already leading a county or state election integrity group
or would like to add election integrity to your organization's
mission, we would love to work with you.****Please contact me here (and
please be patient).**
No political consultants, party apologists, or patriot pretenders need
apply. We've tried it your way. America bears unnecessary scars
caused by your cowardice. We'll take our chances without you.
It will be 'we the people' who preserve liberty for our children.
Keep the faith.
Ever onward,
Catherine Engelbrecht
Founder, True the Vote
PS. One more thing ... be joyful. We live in the greatest country in the
world. Do not harden your heart. There is more power in love than in
hate. So gird up, smile, and leave the haters behind.
