Like many others, I have been writing postcards for #PostcardsToVoters...and wow

Look at this





2020's fun, friendly, fully-handwritten notes to vote so far...

Each month Jan - May, our amazing volunteers sent 300k+ #PostcardsToVoters

June: 400k+
July: 500k+
Aug: 900K+

Just in the last 7 days: 483,573!

Get in on the fun by texting JOIN to (484) 275-2229


The new addresses I just asked for are for Cal Cunningham - and I think Postcards to Voters has nearly EXHAUSTED their lists of voters to write to. It appears to be the only active race still available.

Living in a deep blue state, we felt helpless in the National conversation. After sending over 400 postcards encouraging vote by mail, I think we participated in a personal way to impact the outcome.

Thanks to the organizers of a great effort. I will watch on Election night, and expect Kornacke or another analyst tell me how VOTE by mail numbers grew in the four Florida counties that I wrote to.

GET OUT THE VOTE! WE MUST WIN WITH AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY!

418 Electoral votes are within reach. Total defeat and humiliation of the Trump Party is required.
