The 2020 election was critical to the survival of our republic.
The 2024 election is a matter of life or death for America. It is THAT important.
The odds are that Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee. Even worse, the criminal/traitor/con man/sexual predator could very well win, if we don’t stop him.
A SECOND TRUMP TERM WOULD MEAN THE DEATH OF AMERICA.
Make no mistake: We are in a war, a war we MUST win. There is no alternative to victory.
Thankfully, millions of people are already alert to the danger. They are fiercely committed to a Democratic victory top to bottom. They are already working on that victory. LET’S HELP THEM
What Are the Keys to Victory?
A. Canvassing. A great ground game is the gold standard of elections. Check this out:
Canvassing, or the process of going door-to-door to talk to voters about a candidate’s platform, remind them of an upcoming election, and even register them to vote, is among the most important components of getting out the vote. It’s important because it works. That’s even when many people might not choose to open their doors. Turnout is between 1.7 and 9.8 percentage points higher among canvassed voters, depending on the year, while phone banking and sending campaign mail shows little to no effect on turnout – which means that every 14 people a campaign contacts through canvassing results in a new voter. This result is even more pronounced in lower-turnout communities: in majority-Black neighborhoods, canvassing increases turnout by 7 to 14 percentage points, and young voters were 1.4 times more likely to vote in 2012 when contacted by a campaign. While the estimates of canvassing’s effect vary across elections, the conclusion holds that hitting the streets is more effective than any other means of reaching voters, even including the most sophisticated auto-dialing systems that can call hundreds of voters a minute.
The work that snowbored is doing in posting OUTSTANDING diaries such as this is absolutely KEY.
Swing Left is already working hard! Help them out!
KnockEveryDoor is an essential tool.
Democrats Take Action Join the fight!
The list of state Democratic parties is HERE. Contact them!!!
B. Knowing the requirements for voter registration. Vote.gov has the requirements for every state and will help people get registered. This site also has detailed info. I suggest you bookmark both of them.
Learn about voting requirements in every state here.
C. Knowing our target groups. Rule #1: DON’T WASTE TIME ARGUING WITH THE MAGATS! They are beyond help. They are nasty, ignorant, crazy, delusional, malicious, stupid, or all of the above. You will not convert them. We must OUTVOTE THEM, massively. It is essential that we turn out the vote among People of Color, women (+17 for Biden in the most recent NBC poll), and young people. In regard to the latter, contact Voters of Tomorrow. Also, follow Victor Shi, a tireless organizer for GOTV efforts among younger voters.
Check out Black Votes Matter.
ABOVE ALL, GO ON OFFENSE. Post our achievements and our victories everywhere. Brag about them LOUD AND PROUD. Attack the Republicans tirelessly. On Twitter I wage war relentlessly. You can find my HUGE collection of posts right here. Lotta good stuff there folks, lotta good stuff. Focus on the independents and the undecideds. And remember that your fellow Kossacks are an endless source of information. GO ON THE ATTACK AND STAY ON THE ATTACK.
I have only one goal: VICTORY.
How about you?
