Hi John --
With just 12 days left until election night and a whopping 271 of our candidates on the ballot, does it really need to be said? There are NO OFF YEARS.
This is crunch time for our candidates, and they need every bit of help they can to get out the vote (GOTV). So we made it easy for you to get involved in this election.
First: The most powerful way you can help GOTV is to talk to voters (safely) face-to-face, reminding them to vote.
In races that frequently come down to just a few dozen votes, every door knocked and voter you talk to can make the difference! We have a map so you can find local Run for Something candidates and sign up to volunteer with their campaign. (You might not think there's an election within an hour or two of you -- but I bet you'll be surprised!)
Second: If you don't live near one of our candidates or aren't able to knock on doors, you can call voters in critical races from the comfort of your kitchen table, your couch, your back patio -- wherever!
Sign up here to get our volunteer updates -- we'll send you a list tomorrow with lots of remote phone banking opportunities.
Every voter contacted is another one that shows up to the polls!
With over 271 of our candidates still on the ballot, it's our time to make a difference.
Let's get out the vote!
