John -- 

Election Day 2022 is this Tuesday. All of us will celebrate certain victories, feel the sting of some defeats, and wait with bated breath for results that are "too close to call." 

There are numerous opportunities to join with fellow Forwardists to watch results roll in, engage in civil conversation, and plan for what comes next. Check out the list below and join us online or at an event near you.

Thanks,

-- The Forward Party Team
