Election Day is one week from today, and we're supporting more than 150 candidates while also recruiting candidates for 2020 in key states. Can you throw a few bucks our way?
Hi there --
On top of supporting our 2019 candidates (one week to Election Day!), one of the biggest parts of our work right now is recruiting really good young progressive candidates.
A really good candidate isn't necessarily someone with a degree in political science or someone who fits a certain profile. Finding a really good candidate takes time -- it means talking to a whole bunch of people about why they care about their community and what problems they're setting out to fix. And right now, filing deadlines for state seats are coming up fast in seven key states; candidates in Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, California, Texas, Ohio, and North Carolina all need to have their paperwork squared away and meet all other requirements to get on the ballot by the end of this year.
That's not a lot of time to recruit those really good candidates and guide them through the antiquated filing processes that vary by state, so we need to be able to throw resources into these recruitment pushes today. Can you help by pitching in $10 or more?
