Friend--

We’re in the middle of the most important election of our lives--and in the middle of an unprecedented health crisis.

The general election has begun, and Democrats are calling for a complete overhaul of our elections infrastructure. I’ll be blunt: our elections system will require a seismic shift to ensure a fair election this November.

And Republican’s want to keep it that way. ([link removed]) They know that when more people vote, Democrats win, and they’re working hard to quash vote-by-mail efforts. Trump said it himself: vote-by-mail “doesn’t work out well for Republicans.” ([link removed])

This isn’t about who wins or who loses--it’s about defending our Constitutional rights. That’s why I, along with 50 other state party chairs, am calling on our federal legislators to allocate at least $2 billion to implement a universal vote-by-mail system, extended early voting periods, and same day registration.

We’re not just calling for these reforms, we’re implementing them in our own Party. MassDems are holding our caucuses to elect district delegates to the Democratic National Convention completely by mail. We’re asking Massachusetts Democrats to request their ballot to vote for who’s representing them in Milwaukee this August by April 22nd.

REQUEST YOUR DNC DELEGATE BALLOT ([link removed])
I can’t tell you enough how important it is for us to keep democracy going during this pandemic--that’s why we’re leading by example. No one should have to choose between their health and having their voice heard.Request your ballot for district delegate to the Democratic National Convention today. ([link removed])

Democratically yours,

Gus Bickford
Chair, Massachusetts Democratic Party
