Let's get out the vote, in community.

Sep 13, 2024

A special Sunday cross-post to say that I now have a separate page with resources for hosting your own Get Out the Vote letter-writing party! I've gotten a lot of interest from folks near and far who want to write letters, so I've compiled everything at www.neighboring.substack.com/gotv. Instruction sheets, links, presentation slides, trainings and more. HAPPY WRITING! Bonus tip: I've printed a packs of letters with my instructions sheets and envelopes. I'm carrying them with me in case it comes up in conversation... then VOILA I take out a pack of letters and distribute to a new volunteer. -

Host your own letter-writing party with Vote Forward! 💌

Resources

Sign up here to join the NEIGHBORING team on Vote Forward to meet my goal of sending 1,000 letters to potential voters this year!

An instruction sheet I made to hand out with packs of letters.

Google Slides, modified for my letter-writing events but also has good general info about who we’re writing to and why.

Recording of Vote Forward’s Joy in Letter Writing national call, including a letter writing training and a few minutes from yours truly sharing about hosting laidback letter-writing events.

If you’re looking for climate-specific GOTV actions, write letters with Greenpeace USA Votes! 🌎

I’ve also been writing letters with Greenpeace USA Votes, targeting potential climate voters in key congressional races in California and Arizona. They have a party planning toolkit too. The instruction sheet and slides that I shared above also include Greenpeace USA Votes info.
