And just like that, folks...the countdown clock is back in The Conversation.
We have fewer than 100 days until the most consequential midterm elections in recent history.
Yes, we've said those exact words before, about other elections — midterm and otherwise. But it's never been truer than it is today.
In fewer than 100 days, we will either remain standing, bruised but unyielding, as a democracy — or we will succumb to the authoritarian excesses of a madman and the party he has twisted and contorted, often beyond recognition, to reflect his own image.
We all know what we have to do, no matter how bone-tired, worn-down, and cynical we may feel at times.
Not only do we need to be exceptionally brave and determined — making sure we cast our own votes to save democracy, no matter what obstacles are placed in front of us — but we also have to convince and help every reachable person we know to do the same.
We have to make this election too big for the GOP to rig.
At Door-to-Door Democracy, we are committed to making this as easy as possible for you.
Through the contents of our newsletter, we provide you with quick, convenient, and streamlined access to all of the things you'll need to play your part in unleashing the blue wave this fall. Look for us more frequently in your inbox or on our website starting later next month.
Whether you are knocking on doors to speak directly to voters, making calls and writing postcards from home, attending rallies and visibility events, or getting the word out in your community through quiet conversations, it's all important — and it all comes together to make a real difference.
Please join us as we join forces to complete this beautiful mosaic of citizen actions — and pull out all the stops to get democracy successfully over the finish line throughout these next three months!
Your future self will thank you.
