John,

 

Major poll aggregators have the presidential election at a tie, so we need to ramp up our ground game. In lieu of a monthly general body meeting, AYD is encouraging members to Canvass, Phonebank, Textbank, or whatever you can to turn out voters in in Virginia and the seven battleground states. To find out how you can get involved, go to mobilize.us.

 

Today, AYD will be joining the Arlington Dems Women's caucus to make calls chasing vote-by-mail ballots in Florida, which has a crucial constitutional referendum concerning abortion rights in the state.

 

But the time to fight for this election is everyday, all day. It is going to take ALL of us to win this.

 

When we fight, we win!

~Samantha
