OK, Make a Plan

Think of ALL the people you know. Write them down if you have to. And CALL them. Or message them individually, or Zoom them...

Ask them if they have verified their registration. and ask them to make a plan for voting.
- Drop off the ballot
- Vote by mail
- Vote early
- Vote on Election Day

Get them thinking about it. Get them planning for it. Get them in the mindset that it's important.

Tell them that the election was decided by a small number of votes in some key states. And we can't let that happen again.
Tell them that Senate races matter, House races matter, State Senate and State Assembly races matter. It's not just the president.

Talk to them about being informed. https://www.VOTE411.org gives detailed info on ALL the candidates on your ballot.

Maybe it's too early to talk to people. Maybe you want to wait until September. But at least make the list of everyone you want to contact.

The future of our country depends on it.
