Thank you, Jess, for telling us about Shomari Figures. I just read his bio and donated to his campaign. He has the kind of expertise and experience that is needed in Congress. And he learned about fighting for the public good early - his father, Michael Figures, was the lawyer who bankrupted the Klan.
Thank you, Jess. It's great to have so much enthusiasm, though a part of me is like, Where the hell have you been? I guess I'm tired (but not slowing down til Nov. 6th).
Hi Jess -- I tried contacting the Shomari Figures campaignusing the campaign's web site, and there was no way to actually send the email. I wanted to suggest that they contact Postcards to Voters (info@TonyTheDemocrat.org and/or https://postcardstovoters.org/campaigns/ to find out how to get us writing GOTV postcards for them. It's free to campaigns. This kind of campaign sounds like it'd be right up PtV's alley. Any way you can pass this along to them? Of course I don't know if they've already contacted Tony, but it's worth a try.
Also very impressed with what I read about Shomari Figures. Just contributed. It would be interesting to know how much was contributed just today because of you! Incredible family, wonderful candidate.
Thanks for all you do, and for inspiring me! Can you look into the Heritage Foundation’s attempt the recruit GOP-led states to not certify election results when Kamala wins? I’m very worried about this and its potential to upend our good chances in n November.
Hubbell wrote about it this morning. I was somewhat mollified, but I frankly don’t think anything is beneath the MAGA extremists at this point. Venezuela is a case in point!
I would like to share the blue voter guide ad, which is terrific. I couldn’t figure out how. Any chance you could include the link. And my apologies if I’ve missed it. I often have trouble seeing details.
I've been feeling so positive and hopeful with all that has happened in the last week. But last night the Harris HQ Instagram posted the Heritage Foundation chilling remarks. I'm not clear what the purpose was for them to post it other than to inform. Then I read a Rolling Stone article with the Dem election lawyer, Marc Elias, about what is going on with Trumpist state electors in swing states to not certify the votes. I had to stop reading it scared me so bad.
Anyone have hope, guidance, or insight on this? Actions we can take? All the actions in this newsletter help me so much, but I'm at a total loss here!
All I can suggest is working as hard as we can to turn out as many voters as we can. We need to win not by small margins but by a landslide. in every state we can. It's going to take a massive effort, but we can do it.
Thank you for helping find volunteers for Blue Voter Guide! This is the NUMBER ONE WAY to help voters vote their FULL ballot and not "roll off" before they vote blue up and down the ballot!
I’m really happy to hear that. You do so much for so many. Here’s a favorite quote of mine attributed to Mohammad Ali, “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room on earth.”

He's got an amazing story!

I feel that. But I'm also so glad people are finally plugging in!
Just donated to Figures campaign
THANK YOU!

Thank you, Dori!
Thank you for pitching the campaign of Shomari Figures. I would not have known about him otherwise. Just sent a donation!
Amazing thank you, Janie!

I mean, it's not my wheelhouse but I'd assume Marc Elias etc. are thinking about it very hard.

Thanks! I'll keep doing all I can and try to stay as sane as possible.

I haven't eliminated! So sorry! My husband and I are both travelling and can't do it. It's coming back on the 10th!
