Messaging on the Election.

We are now entering the home stretch. This is a pivotal time to rally voters to take action to protect our freedoms and our futures by voting for Democrats all the way down the ballot. Voters need to see that we have the power to stop MAGA Republicans/Election Deniers. Voting in state and local races is one more way we can build the world we want at the voting booth. 

The media’s fixation on polls can send us all into a tailspin. But we must be the ones to lift others out of despair and fortify them for action; we must redouble our efforts to turn up the volume on our messages and turnout our voters.

Polls will go up and down.

The pundits were wrong in March, April, and June when they said conventional wisdom was that the out-of-office party won the mid-terms. Then, there was the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v Wade (overturning the most intimate freedom in our lives, about when, whether or with whom we have a child); then the January 6 hearings–exposing the criminal conspiracy by MAGA Republicans to overthrow the election they knew they lost; then the achievements of the Biden Administration ($35/insulin, $2,000 max for Rx seniors, student debt cancellation for many, greatest investment in climate ever, etc.)

Polls: reflect how they WEIGHT the polls expecting the Turnout that they project–WHO will turn out.

To correct past errors, they are weighting the polls to reflect a more conservative turnout. But that all means WHO we turn out is the key issue.

Polls: what we need is The Margin of EFFORT (as we look at the polls) – NOT the margin of error. It is up to us!

Remember: Biden won by only 5 vote/precinct in AZ (10,457 votes), GA (11,779 votes), WI (20,682 votes). Every vote counts.

The Moment.

See what happened to Liz Tuss in England– she ran on the tax cuts for the wealthy and destroy the investment in our people and she was out!

NOW WE NEED TO GET OUT OUR VOTES!!

“What I was able to predict over the summer is still true now, that abortion is dominating this election cycle. And not only are young people motivated to vote, but young people are also more motivated to talk to their own family and friends about abortion rights to make sure that the people in their lives are voting for and electing reproductive rights champions.” – Heather Booth
