AYD in Action: Canvass, Celebrate, Connect!

Dear ,
From rallying on the first day of early voting to gearing up for our biggest fall event yet, AYD is keeping the energy high as we head into October.
Last week, we joined Arlington Democrats to kick off the very first day of early voting with a rally at Courthouse Plaza. It was great to see so many AYD members there to help launch the season of action. Early voting is officially underway, and we’ll need everyone pitching in to keep Arlington and flip Virginia blue this fall.
Make sure you have a plan to vote - find an early voting location or your precinct now! Before you head to the voting booth, be sure to check out the Arlington Democrats Sample Ballot for this year's slate!
