GGTX can help progressives unlock MASSIVE electoral victories in 2022 and beyond.
In our last email, we told the story of how Ground Game Texas convinced 'Joe' to vote for the first time by using a popular issue – decriminalizing weed. Now we’re going to show you the evidence that Ground Game Texas can help progressives unlock MASSIVE electoral victories in Texas – in 2022 and beyond. 1) Workers, wages and weed are popular with everyone. 91% support legal weed. 60% support $15/hour. 80% support paid leave programs. 2) When these issues are on the ballot, they WIN – including in red states. South Dakota legalized medical marijuana. Florida approved $15/hour. Nebraska capped payday loan interest. 3) Texas is ripe for change. The electorate is getting younger and more diverse, and turnout is on the rise! But there are still plenty of places we can improve. That’s why “workers, wages, and weed” on local ballots + in-person conversations = Progressive turnout. It’s a simple recipe to permanently transform Texas. And Ground Game Texas is the only organization bringing it life.
