Hey Swing Left,
Picture waking up next Wednesday, after the GOP has narrowly won in Virginia yet again.
Imagine the sinking feeling of knowing we missed a once-in-a-decade chance to put a pro-democracy majority in charge in Virginia and undo years of racial gerrymandering.
Think of the national headlines, and wishing you had done more.
This doesn’t have to be our reality: Democrats can flip Virginia on Tuesday. But it’s going to be close, and it’ll take every one of us doing what we can to help. Even if you haven't been able to volunteer so far, there's still time to make an impact on the most important weekend of this election. RSVP to spend a few hours knocking doors this weekend—talking face-to-face with voters is the most effective thing you can do to help Democrats win.
This weekend is the last weekend before Election Day, and the most critical time to volunteer. Having conversations with voters in the four days leading up to an election is a time-tested way to help make sure they vote.
Click here, and we’ll show you the highest-impact canvassing shifts available, so you’ll know you’re making the biggest difference you can in these races. And when you get to the campaign office, a campaign staffer will train you on how to have effective conversations with voters. We’ve given you everything you need to have a successful shift—you just need to show up.
Democrats are just 4 seats away from finally taking control of the Virginia state legislature. If they win, they could pass life-changing progressive legislation and draw fair district maps so that everyone’s vote actually counts.
And people will draw big conclusions about what the Virginia outcome means for Democrats next year, Trump’s chance at re-election, and the future of the Senate and House.
There is no next weekend to get involved. This is your last chance to help flip Virginia blue. Sign up to knock doors near you this weekend, and help get voters to the polls.
Thanks,
Ethan, Catherine, Michelle, Matt, and the Swing Left Team
