Happy Tuesday, Activists! We hope you're having a great week so far! It's that time again - time to remind voters that this November's election is really important and that they need to vote. They might not realize this since the primary election in Philadelphia essentially decides the races. They might think their job is done for this year - but it's not! So we have many opportunities for you to help get out the vote. Take your pick and get in the game!
VOTE BY MAIL PHONE BANKS Our friends at Promote The Vote PA are holding phone banks to talk to voters about voting by mail. These phone calls are great and you are helping save democracy! There will be training and support during the entire phone bank, which is on zoom. There are a variety of dates, so sign up here for one that suits you. You can even invite friends and do it "together!"
JOIN OUR TEXTING PARTY! We'll have a texting party on Thursday, October 28th from 6-8 pm - both on zoom or in person. This will be fun! We'll be texting to Philadelphia voters to remind them to vote on November 7th. We'll be doing it on zoom and in a private home, in case you prefer to be in person. We'll send you the address once you sign up. You can pick your location, and we'll all see each other on zoom. We'll use an internet-based platform for the texting, so you won't use your phone, your phone number, or any identifying information about you. This type of texting is easy and fun. We'll have a training first and support from moderators throughout the evening. So join us! We'll send more details as we get closer to the date but sign up for whichever location you want - in your own home or in person in Center City. We'll send you the zoom link closer to the event. When: Thursday, October 28th 6:00 to 8:00 pm. Sign up to attend on zoom from your home. Sign up for the in-person party at a home in Center City.
