Hi Friend,

Our democracy is stronger when more people vote. In 2017, 47.6% of
registered voters participated in Virginia’s statewide elections for the
governor’s office and the House of Delegates. Voters helped
Democrats—including five Flippable alums—flip a record 15 House seats. In
doing so, Virginians elected the first Hispanic and Asian-American women
to the House of Delegates and the first openly transgender legislator to
state office.

But in years like 2019, voter turnout is historically lower in Virginia.
Even though all 140 seats in the General Assembly are up for election, the
lack of a gubernatorial, congressional, or presidential race makes voters
less likely to participate. (In the last two similar statewide elections,
2015 and 2011, voter turnout was just 29.1% and 28.6%, respectively.) This
means that high-impact elections fly under the radar, and fewer voices are
heard in the making of Virginia’s state government.

Canvassing supplies for Flippable candidates Del. Debra Rodman, Del.
Schuyler VanValkenburg, and Rodney Willet, who are running to represent
Richmond-area voters.

[ Flip ]With just two weeks until Election Day, our candidates need your help
to turn out Virginia voters. Overcoming the low profile of an off-year
election is critical to our candidates’ success on November 5th. And
thanks to Swing Left, you can help our candidates reach more voters no
matter where you live—by writing letters from home, phone banking with the
campaign, or canvassing with local teams in Virginia. Together, we can
help get out the vote, flip the General Assembly blue, and bring good
government to the Commonwealth for years to come.
