Excerpts: "If NOT NOW, WHEN? IF NOT US, WHO? If you’re anything like me, you’re feeling beleaguered by the headlines, weary beyond the pale. But Democrats can NOT have a lull before the storm of November 5. We need to GET OUT THE VOTE.
"If you need renewed momentum for these last ten days, please read Steve’s powerful piece, “Do All You Can Now … Because Come Election Day, Things Will Really Get Ugly.” (https://borntorunthenumbers.com/2024/10/26/btrtn-do-all-you-can-now-because-come-election-day-things-will-really-get-ugly/) In it, Steve notes that when he was canvassing door to door in Pennsylvania, the Harris campaign told him that the most effective time to knock on doors is in the days immediately leading up to Election Day and on November 5 itself. Steve will be there. Tom and I will be there. Will you?
"If you live in or near a swing state and you’re comfortable, please knock on doors to get out that blue vote... If you can’t knock on doors, next best is making calls. Writing postcards is mainly behind us. I’ve done some texting, but the available cell numbers are gobbled up by eager volunteers so quickly that they’re quickly depleted. What I’ve heard over and over as I’ve volunteered is that we need people to make calls to swing states. Callers are given a script and in the main are calling Democratic leaning voters … it’s no longer about persuasion, it’s about getting out that vote...
