We're less than four months away from the midterm elections, and with the chaos of the past few months including the overturning of Roe v. Wade, with gun violence, and right-wing attacks on our democratic ideals, we cannot waste a single second working to flip this district red to blue.
Christy's not wasting any time either. She's hitting the campaign trail hard, talking to voters daily and getting her message out all across the district.
Check out what Christy's been up to: In case you missed it, Christy was elated to be named one of the DCCC's Red to Blue candidates, which supports and funds top-tier candidates in the most competitive swing districts across the country. The path to holding our majority in the House means flipping CA-27 and Christy is the candidate to make it happen. With this news, and the support of this amazing grassroots team, we know Christy is unstoppable.
Gen Z and millennials now make up the biggest voting block and have the power to shape elections for generations to come. Christy was thrilled to join Grassroot Democrats' "Organize for Democracy" summer cohort to talk about the power of the youth vote and how we can organize and mobilize young voters to elect candidates who will fight for their interests.
This campaign has always been powered by our grassroots activists, volunteers, and supporters, and they were out in full force earlier this month! We had our biggest volunteer canvass ever and knocked on over 1,700 doors to flip CA-27 from red to blue. This is what democracy looks like, team! Thank you to all the dedicated volunteers and organizers who made it happen!
A recent Vox article featured Christy Smith and the battle for CA-27 as a race that could have the biggest impact on the future of abortion rights:
Vox writes, "Rep. Mike Garcia also faces a tough reelection fight in California's 27th District, which leans slightly more Democratic than his old one. Garcia supported the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe and backed legislation like the Life at Conception Act, which bars all abortions."
Christy was proud to join activists from Moms Demand Action, fellow Democrats and the reproductive justice community to honor Independence Day in its truest form: fighting for liberty and justice FOR ALL.
For the rights of women and people with uterus' to make decisions for own bodies, for the right to an abortion, for the freedom to love you who love openly and without shame, and for the right to go to school, or to concert, or to movie without the threat of a mass shooting. This is the America that Christy will fight for every day.
Thank you so much to all the volunteers, donors, and grassroots supporters who make this campaign possible.
We have a long four months ahead of us before the midterms, but with the support of this grassroots team, we're going to move mountains.
