Gather friends for a vote club! It’s like a book club, but for democracy! Spend an hour making phone calls then enjoy some wine, split up research for the local races, or plan an event to drop-off ballots or carpool to the polls. Make voting a party!
Use drop boxes, not USPS! If you MUST mail, walk up to the counter for a postmark, but USPS took so long during primaries that some elections were certified before late mail arrived, so find your region’s map of drop boxes and make sure folks know! Consider holding micro-protests to make the location visible!
Donate to DemocracyForward.org Marc Elias is leading the fight against post-election theft and his groups of lawyers already have several challenges proceeding (e.g. Alaska). They’ll face a larger than usual onslaught, so when you’ve done everything you can for voting, fund defending that vote!

Proposed changes to who counts for the census could reduce the representation of marginalized communities. It’s one more way the GOP is trying to set themselves up to win despite plunging approval ratings. Think of it as gerrymandering at the lowest level: how we count populations for apportionment. See handsoffourcens.us for details.

Sign up to do some #GOTV phone banking today! There are phone banks to motivate casual voters, support specific candidates, and even recruit people to do ballot-curing after the election! Spend just one hour phone banking and you’ll know you did something concrete to help. If we all did it, we’d reach every eligible person who didn’t vote in 2024!
Spend this last weekend day researching all the “smaller” races on your ballot! Judges, school boards, levies… If you use a mail-in ballot, get started, and remember it’s too late for USPS. Use a drop box. If you vote in-person, find your races and create a cheat-sheat for yourself.
