Election Day 2019 is coming up fast - and we know
Pantsuit Nation members love to get involved in
elections because they matter so much. These
upcoming elections are no different. Statewide
elections are happening in 5 states: Virginia, New
Jersey, Kentucky, Mississippi and Louisiana.
Whether you live in one of those states or not, we
have a couple of ways that you can get involved:
Write letters to Virginia voters.

letters directly to voters in Virginia,
encouraging them to vote. Voters who receive
letters are significantly more likely to go to the
polls! Why focus on Virginia even if you don’t
live there? Republicans control the state
legislature by an extremely slim margin: they hold
the House by two seats (there was even a tiebreak
resolved by drawing a name out of a bowl --
really), and Senate by just one seat. Whoever wins
control of the legislature gets to make decisions
on policies that will affect women's lives, and --
here's where this affects the whole country in
particular -- control of the redistricting process
which affects elections for U.S. Congress. Start
sending letters today.

Learn about each election.
Ballotpedia [[link removed]]
offers information on all of the votes happening
across the country. While the states listed above
have statewide elections, many places have
municipal elections this year! (I’m voting for
City Councilors in my district!). Visit
Ballotpedia and enter your address to learn about
your elections, including dates and who or what
will be on the ballot. Check it out!

Together we can increase turnout this year and
make a difference in elections across the country!
