CALL TO ACTION: SWING STATE GET-OUT-THE-VOTE
In addition to our local focus, the RDTC is committed to make it easy for our neighbors who are concerned about the overall direction of this country to get involved in this crucial election season. We are sponsoring three “Get out the Vote” events that focus on outreach to key swing states and the Presidential election, designed to create an opportunity for us to make a difference, meet other like-minded neighbors and enjoy light refreshments:
Thursday, August 15 | 6:45- 7:30 pm @ Redding Town Hall Feel free to join the DTC meeting too!
Saturday, September 21 | 3:00 – 4:00 pm / Redding residence
Wednesday September 25 | 5:30-8:15 pm / Redding Democrat Home (Drop in for an hour+ as is convenient)
WHAT:
We will use the Vote Forward platform, a research-based vehicle to engage voters through personalized letters. The Vote Forward platform is non-partisan and can be used for local and Presidential elections in swing states. The platform focuses on Democrats and independents that are sporadic and / or undecided voters: precisely the segment that is likely to decide the outcome of this most consequential election cycle! You can read more about this here: https://votefwd.org/about-us
HOW:
Sign up below for one or all of the Vote Forward events. The RDTC will provide everything you need to participate, including sample letters, pens, stamps, envelopes, and refreshments to enjoy in a friendly environment. Indicate your interest here:
