Friend,

A far-right Trumpist governor in California? It could happen in less than
two weeks – and we must stop it.

There is a very real possibility California could recall Democratic
Governor Gavin Newsom on September 14 and replace him with one of the most
extreme far-right figures in the state, radio show host Larry Elder. Right
now the race is neck-and-neck, and it shouldn’t be this close – there’s a
significant awareness gap among California Democrats that we need your
help to fix.

[ [link removed] ]Sign up today for a virtual phone or text bank to urge Californians to
vote NO on the recall of Gov. Newsom! >>

This recall is happening because a well-funded coalition of far-right
activists has mobilized voters who have grown weary of tough but necessary
COVID-19 safety restrictions. Since this is an off-cycle election, many
California progressives might still be unaware of how critical their vote
this month will be. And we need our members across the country to pitch in
to help get out the vote because this election has stark nationwide
implications.

California’s senior U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein is 88 years old, and
should she leave office before her term ends in 2024, the governor at that
time would appoint her replacement. With our current narrow 50-50 split in
the Senate, a Republican appointee could tip the scales back towards GOP
control and return Mitch McConnell to the seat of power.

This would be catastrophic not only for achieving our progressive
legislative agenda, but also for the state of our basic civil rights and
our democracy itself. With the Far Right continuing to push Trump’s Big
Lie about the 2020 election being stolen, we cannot afford to have an
anti-voting rights majority in Congress.

[ [link removed] ]Please join us from wherever you are in the country to call California
voters and urge them to vote NO on the recall! >>

With California’s ballots already having been sent by mail, we need help
making sure that every progressive returns their ballot by September 14 –
and we need your help to make sure that happens.

[ [link removed] ]Volunteer now to get out the vote AGAINST the recall! >>

In solidarity,

Sarah, Digital Campaigns Associate
