Write to likely climate voters!

Here is the latest about voter registration and turn-out postcard or letter campaigns.

GET OUT THE VOTE

There are now three active campaigns campaigns to influence voters to elect candidates who support climate action.

FIELD TEAM 6

The organization Field Team 6 is currently postcarding to register new voters. Here is a link telling you how to get started: https://fieldteam6.herokuapp.com/getting_started

VOTE FORWARD – New program in Ohio plus on-going programs for the fall elections: send letters

We’re writing to young, Democratic-leaning women in Ohio to encourage them to vote in the August special election. Ohioans will be voting whether or not to raise the threshold required to pass citizen-led ballot measures from a simple majority to 60%—meaning a future measure could be blocked by a minority, even if it’s supported by a majority of Ohioans.

The possible impacts of this anti-democratic effort to raise the vote threshold for citizen-led constitutional amendments in Ohio—including on issues like abortion access and fair maps—are far-reaching. Read more about why we’ve launched this campaign on our website.

We’ll send these letters on a rolling basis, so as soon as your letters are written, sealed, stamped, and addressed, put them in the mail and download another batch! All letters must be mailed no later than August 1.

I’m ready to write

POSTCARDS TO SWING STATES — New program for fall elections

In Virginia, we’ll write to rally Democrats to vote in 42 competitive state legislative districts this November. Democrats hold a narrow majority in the state Senate and Republicans hold a narrow majority in the House of Delegates. In Kentucky, our postcards will help Democratic Governor Andy Beshear win re-election in November.

You’ll need to provide your own postcards and stamps for this program. We recommend progressivepostcards, an online store that sells postcards with several of our designs for less than most sellers. We’ll add designs specific to Virginia and Kentucky before sign-ups start, but you can buy general designs there anytime. After you sign up, we’ll email you a list of voters and instructions, which will include an October mailing date and three short message options.

FREDERICA AALTO

Another way to participate is to work with Frederica Aalto:

“I am administering a postcarding network in Humboldt County (presently over 300 writers) and we supply postcards and stamps to writers, which are available for cost at several convenient pickup locations. Have anyone interested in joining us contact me.”

She can be reached at: [email protected]

JOIN THE 350 HUMBOLDT LETTER WRITING GROUP AT 7PM EVERY SUNDAY.
