John, for the past several years this grassroots team has helped Voto Latino make incredible progress and achieve important victories.
In 2018, we registered over 200,000 new voters in time for the midterm elections, and more than three-quarters of them turned out to cast a ballot! As a result, we helped generate a historic blue wave that delivered the House majority to Democrats.
Then, in 2020, we set an ambitious goal of registering half a million voters. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, we blew past that goal and registered more than 600,000 new voters! These new voters were instrumental to taking back the Senate and defeating Donald Trump — in Arizona and Georgia, the number of voters we registered exceeded the Democratic margin of victory.
Most recently, in 2022, our voter registration and mobilization efforts helped drive Latino turnout in key swing states, helped prevent the "red wave" pundits predicted and helped Democrats expand their Senate majority.
Now, we need to start investing in 2024. We'll need to register and mobilize more voters than ever before to ensure we keep a MAGA Republican like Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis out of the White House, keep the Senate blue, and take back the House majority. And that means we need to start now.
That's why we're asking our top grassroots supporters to commit to powering our voter registration work in 2023 so we can make our voices heard in 2024. Will you sign the pledge today?
