Friend,
The Washington Post just published a list of the biggest lies that right-wing extremist Larry Elder has told to win the Recall campaign, and it’s jaw-dropping.(1)
He has repeated the Big Lie that the 2020 election was fraudulent. He says kids are immune to COVID-19 and shouldn’t get vaccinated. And he says climate change isn’t real.
Larry Elder is a conspiracy theorist and pathological liar. But if we don’t boost turnout for the Recall election, this Fox News commentator and Donald Trump acolyte could likely be the next governor of California and turn his lies into actual laws.
We have just days left to pull out all the stops and defeat the Recall. Will you chip in $5 to help push our campaign over the finish line?
As of today, only 30% of ballots have been returned, the majority from older, white Californians.
We need to boost turnout from younger voters and voters of color, and we need to make sure the thousands of people displaced by wildfires and other reasons know how to vote.
We have just a few days left, and here’s how we’re making the most of them:
- We’re ramping up our hard-hitting social media campaign, spreading memes and videos to let people know to turn their NO ballots in immediately.
- We’re spreading the word about our voter-information resources, so people know how to vote with provisional ballots, vote early, or vote on Election Day.
- We’re combatting Larry Elder’s lies in the media and on social media platforms.
The stakes for California are extremely high, and we can’t afford to leave anything on the table. It’s all hands on deck to defeat the Recall. Will you rush a donation now?
Yes, I'll chip in $5 and help defeat the Recall.
Yours in the fight for democracy,
Irene, along with Angela, Annie, Caitlin, Isidra, Jay, Lindsay, LisaMarie, Raquel, and Scottie (the Courage team)
