Dear wonderful IndiMarin volunteers,
First of all, a heartfelt thank you for all that you’re doing to protect democracy and help elect Democrats everywhere. With 92 days until Election Day and the wind finally at our backs, we’ve never been more joyously hopeful that we can win this thing!
Perhaps you write postcards, make phone calls, or even knock on doors. We’re reaching out today to open a new possibility to you: texting. No other tool offers such capacity to reach voters. In less than an hour, a single texter can send thousands of messages via their laptop or tablet. These messages are most effective in recruiting volunteers and getting out the vote, and we are in a particularly intense period of volunteer recruitment right now.
We now have a texting program to offer that is professional and well-funded with excellent tools, terrific training and support, clear scripts, and LOTS of texting – 7 days a week, 12 hours a day! Team Gavin Newsom has launched Campaign for Democracy whose mission is to elect Kamala Harris as president and elect down-ballot Dems in all states. Their immediate goal is to reach every Democratic voter in all fifty states to recruit volunteers, and just take a look at results from the month of July:
7,439,677 voters contacted!
67,000+ volunteers recruited!
17 states complete!
TAKE ACTION ON TEXTING:
If you have a level of comfort with tech and are willing to try something new, texting presents a fantastic opportunity to contribute! Here are two ways to get involved:
Join our Texting Team to be kept up to date on texting meetings and opportunities.
Attend Intro to Texting with IndiMarin on Monday, 8/12 at 4 - 5 pm PT/7-8pm ET
August priorities are to build on this momentum by mobilizing supporters for Dems before Labor Day and contacting remaining Dem voters across the country before the convention. After August 22nd, we’ll be supporting our candidates online and off, amplifying key Dem messages, and making sure folks have a plan to vote. The texting opportunities before us with this campaign are vast!
Onward together,
The Indivisible Marin Texting Team ~ Andie, Jane, Julie, and Susan
