THE WHITE HOUSELet’s Make It a Biden-Harris Landslide |
You’ve heard the news, the numbers look good. But complacency is not an option. The Republican machine will fight back. Let’s make this election a landslide, so it doesn’t go to the Supreme Court.
To win requires social pressure at both ends. Can you join one or two Biden phone banks a week? Install the Vote Joe App on your phone This is your last chance to make sure there’s no question who’s won. |
THE U.S. SENATEThis Landslide Must Go All the Way |
Biden in the White House may feel like a success. But a Biden administration cannot be successful if a Republican Senate fights him every step of the way. We need to flip the Senate and protect our hold on the House of Representatives.
When we GOTV ( get out the vote) in swing states, we not only get Biden into office … we affect the whole ballot. Here are some states where you could make a differences in Senatorial races.

MAINEGo Face-to-Face With Voters and
|
When it comes to getting out the vote, face-to-face conversations are hands-down the most powerful catalyst for getting people to the polls. As of last week, we’re going door to door in Maine to support Sarah Gideon and Joe Biden. Our socially-distanced canvassing efforts could make or break the Gideon-Collins tie.
Drive up to Maine, don a mask, and knock on some doors for Gideon and Biden. |
STATE LEGISLATURESLong-term Democratic Success
|
Even if we elect Biden, even if we flip the Senate, even if we maintain our hold on the House of Representatives, success may be short-lived.
There’s only one way to reinstate the Dem hold on Washington: by cultivating state-level changes. This upcoming crop of state legislators will have the power to redefine electoral boundaries that will remain in force for the next ten years. Moreover, these state-level leaders form the corps of likely US Senators and Representatives for the next generation. Invest in the Future of a Democratic Government |
PENNSYLVANIAIt Starts and Ends at the State House |
The PA State House opened the 2017-18 session with the largest Republican majority since 1957-58. Since then, legislators have gerrymandered districts into incomprehensible shapes and entrenched racial discrimination in their voter ID laws.
To turn the country blue again — and keep it that way — PA voters need to flip the State Senate and House of Representatives. |
NORTH CAROLINALet’s Hit the Jackpot! |
North Carolina is known as a “triple play” state because the President, US Senate seat, and State legislature are all up for grabs in 2020. You can be part of this truly momentous change!
GOTV Flipping the State House |
There are countless opportunities to flip NC every day of the week. |
The best thing you can do for democracy is to focus on a state, get to know its issues, and be part of a phone banking community that meets at the same time every week. What day(s) are you free? What state(s) need you most?

MICHIGANGet Busy Voters to the Polls in MI |
Gov. Whitmer (#ThatWomanfromMichigan) was the intended target of a foiled kidnapping plot. But that’s not stopping her from knocking on doors to get out the vote for State House candidates like Julia Pulver, Nicole Breadon, and Kelly Breen.
Here’s where you come in. Phone bankers report that people aren’t yet voting! Even after two weeks of early voting, they haven’t sent in their VBM ballots or don’t have a plan to vote in person, either early or on Election Day. You can establish the future of Michigan redistricting and voting protection by getting out the word about these candidates. |

Colton Fauquher is only 16, but he was determined to get involved. He reached out to the WI Youth Phone Bank, expressing anxiety about cold calling. Slightly assured, Colton spent an hour talking to dozens of Biden supporters and receiving a lot of positive feedback from Wisconsin voters. Now, he’s enlisted friends to join him.
Engaging people, especially before they’ve reached voting age, makes a meaningful difference in the future of politics in this country. Encourage your friends and family, ages 16-25, to join the Youth Phone Bank, Thursday, Oct 29 @ 7:00 pm – 8:15 pm. A senior at NYU, Madeleine Greenberg co-captains a weekly voter protection phone bank. She also manages data collection and analysis. She uses the surveys and data collection processes she designed to determine best practices for phone bank captains and leaders. An invaluable member of the Voter Protection Team! |
“Our country asks so little of us, and simply being “uncomfortable” about cold calling seemed trivial given the stakes. I’ve really come to enjoy the calls and camaraderie; I plan to continue through November 3 and beyond. When the mission is as important as this, anyone can put aside their fears and be effective. That’s a really empowering feeling.” — Brian Pillsbury |
