Help Dems Win in North Carolina |
|
|
Join All In for North Carolina (AINC) and other major grassroots organizations to hear Georgia Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock. He'll talk about why winning North Carolina in 2024 depends on Mecklenburg County. |
|
You’ll also hear from Anderson Clayton, chair of the NC Democratic Party, and Drew Kromer, chair of the Mecklenburg County Democratic Party. These two young, dynamic new leaders of the North Carolina and Mecklenburg County Democratic Parties have a plan for 2024: |
|
|
With an eye on 2024 and the support of donors like you, this project can build the power to keep a Democrat in the Governor’s mansion, break the Republican supermajority control of the legislature, win North Carolina for President Biden, and set the stage to flip the Republicans’ most vulnerable US Senate Seat in 2026. |
|
Your donations will enable the Democratic Party to hire at least two organizers in Mecklenburg County for all of 2024. |
|
Tue, Dec 5 @ 7:30 pm EST When you donate, you will receive a link to the meeting. |

Use the Winter Break to Recruit Interns |
|
|
You might have plans to see friends and family over the next month, all of whom might know or be college students. And many of those students are looking for a spring or summer internship. Tell them to look no further! |
|
Swing Blue Alliance’s 10-week program helps students prepare for their next job. There are opportunities to write content; develop social media; organize meetings, campaigns, and data; apply foreign language skills; collaborate with on-the-ground organizations in swing states; and much more. Plus, they can earn valuable references. |
|
And they can do all this while protecting democracy! |

The Value of a Swing Blue Alliance Internship |
|
Thanks in part to her Swing Blue Alliance internship, Jasmine Chen was recently accepted to the esteemed Picker Semester-in-Washington program at Smith College. She’ll be learning about public policy processes in Washington from June through December 2024. |
|
As a Swing Blue Alliance intern, Jasmine took responsibility for training and supporting phone bank volunteers. She also contributed to development of an ad that appeared in Ohio newspapers with total circulation of over 117,000 readers. These experiences will serve her well in her next placement. |
