John --
We're just over a week out from Election Day 2022! Forward Party has endorsed candidates <[link removed]> coast-to-coast and up and down the ballot. These candidates are committed to our core principles and democracy reform efforts. But candidates aren't the only thing to consider this year - ballot initiatives to implement good democracy reforms are also being voted on across the country.
Voter turnout will be key in passing these reforms and ensuring good candidates win in November. Be sure to cast your vote, remind your friends and family to do the same, and if you can, give some of your time in the final days of the election to help move our country Forward! See what's happening close to you below.
Thanks,
-- The Forward Party Team
