Help Save Democracy in Virginia

For once, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal agree: the upcoming Virginia elections are “the most important elections of 2023.”

Democrats currently have a paper-thin 2-vote margin in the State Senate, but are down by 3 or 4 in the House of Delegates. If Republicans gain control of the legislature, they will almost certainly pass a statewide abortion ban, support more book bans, increase barriers to voting, weaken pollution controls, and make Virginia look a lot like Florida.  If the Dems win this election, it will give us a big boost heading into 2024.  

These postcards will be sent in support of Clint Jenkins in SD17, a tossup district that could determine which party controls the State Senate.  

In addition to helping Jenkins, these cards will influence voters in several close House districts where turnout is critical.  These districts overlap with SD17, thus giving us 2 or 3 times the impact with this single card.  We are using a technique known as social pressure, which simply shows the voter’s public voting record regarding when they voted.  We made this decision based on overwhelming research that shows that social pressure is the most reliable tool to persuade someone to vote.  Black and white cards that use social pressure are the gold standard for increasing turnout in an off-year election.

Swing Blue materials are meant to be easy for volunteers to process: they only require a short, handwritten message and placement of an address label and stamp on the card. 

Mailing Requirements: Hold and Mail on October 23

Please tell your volunteers to hold their completed cards until October 23rd. They can mail at a location convenient to them but must mail them on October 23rd.

Help Flip North Carolina Blue!

The Mecklenburg County Democratic Party wants to increase Democratic turnout and show that Democrats can win in North Carolina. The Help Flip North Carolina Blue postcard campaign will focus on the local District 6 Charlotte City Council election, aiming to show that Dems can increase turnout in an odd-year race and flip a Republican seat in the process.

In addition, this campaign provides the opportunity to measure and analyze the effectiveness of a postcard campaign in a local race. We will be comparing the difference in turnout between individuals who receive our cards and those who do not. This data will be valuable for this campaign and for others that follow.

Postcards are easy to process: they only require a short, handwritten message and placement of an address label and stamp on the card.

Mailing Requirements: Please hold and mail October 14th

We want voters to receive these postcards while early voting is underway but close enough to election day that it serves as a reminder to people who plan to vote then.  Accordingly, please hold your completed cards and mail exactly on October 14th.  You can mail at a location convenient to you.
