Good morning! Happy Monday!
Why do I sound so happy? Because I phonebanked for seven hours straight yesterday! And Saturday I spent the day canvassing for Christy Smith in the Antelope Valley. I haven’t checked emails, hung out on twitter, or read the news in 3 days. (Which will explain why, if you’ve emailed me, I likely haven’t responded. Sorry!)
Doing GOTV work, and seeing SO MANY OTHERS doing it as well, has put me in an extraordinarily good mood. I’ll be doing the same today and tomorrow, so I’ll be able to stay out of anxiety and fear and in a lot of hope and gratitude. Try it! I promise it works!
Anyway. No regular e-mail today. But here are a few excellent ways to help get out the vote today, Monday:
Sign up for phone banking shifts with the Ohio Democrats through this Mobilize link, even if you haven't made calls before. They'll prepare you well to maximize your impact on Democratic turnout by having important voting plan conversations.
I’ll be calling with the DNC for a good part of today. Their dialer is the best. We’ll be calling into whatever state needs it most—it looks like right now it’s PA, but it’ll change a few times—giving Democratic voters all the info they need to cast their ballots today or tomorrow. This calling is super fun and effective. Sign up for a shift here.
Movement Labs still has millions of texts to send. Sign up here.
I’ve signed up to make calls into Georgia with Fair Fight from 2-4PM PT. I’ll be a bit late as I’ll be coming off of another phonebank (see below) but I’ll be there! Join me! Use this link to sign up.
Know anyone who has money left? Share this Tiktok I made to try to help raise money to close Down Home NC’s 11K budget gap. (I posted it on IG, too.) We’ve raised 6K already! The link to give is here.
Make “ballot chase” calls into PA all day today. Sign up here.
The Environmental Voter Project will continue to have phonebanks all day today. I will tell y’all: my thirteen year old made calls on this phonebank yesterday and loved it. The calls are non-partisan and you’ll simply be helping folks make a plan to vote. Great for new-to-calling folks. Sign up here.
Sister District has phonebanks all day today into PA, NC and MI. They are doing a yeoman’s work making sure folks vote down ballot as well as up—which literally could save democracy. Sign up for a shift here. They need more callers badly.
I’ll be running a phonebank into AZ today from 12:30-2:30 PT / 3:30-5:30 ET. We’ll continue to talk to low-propensity Dems and make sure they get out to vote! Please come!
Thousands of Pennsylvania ballots could be thrown out because they lack signatures, dates, or secrecy envelopes. Voters can still fix these ballots! Volunteer to call and tell them how.
There’s a “Women Are Voting” virtual textbank tomorrow. Sign up here.
Activate America has GOTV phonebanking shifts all day today and tomorrow. Sign up here for today. Sign up here for tomorrow.
Finally, for a good take on where we are electorally right now, read today’s Status Kuo. Very helpful. Although I still think we can hold the House. (:
OK. I’m off to call. Sending love and strength. We can do this.

Wow! Don't know how you do it....but I'm so glad you do! Shared on FB and Twitter. Blessings,
I still think we can hold the HOUSE also, as well as I think we'll gain in the Senate! Go BLUE!!!!
