HERE’S SOMETHING FOR *YOU* TO DO!
Early voting starts in 12 days...
Dear Fellow Democrat,
It is CRUNCH TIME! The time to register or change or check your voter registration is now passed. We are one step closer to Election Day. Our next hurdle is getting the word out about Early Voting - When, Where, and Who to vote for. And RAD ... we are asking for your help and giving you multiple ways to do so!
This Saturday, we will gather for a Day of Action! RAD is teaming up with Sam Eppler and Averie Bishop at 10 a.m. to block walk. We are looking for 20 block walkers to knock on doors and tell folks why they want to vote for Sam & Averie. We are Also teaming up with Colin Allred's folks to do a phone bank! We can use all the help we can get to contact Richardson Voters and ask them to vote for Colin and let them know when and where to vote. And we are ALSO going to prepare slate cards to go out to 10,000 Richardson Democrats! We need help counting and highlighting the 10,000 cards. This will be a fun day and when we win in November, YOU, Fellow Democrat, will be able to say, I did my part, I was a part of saving democracy. PLEASE SIGN UP FOR DETAILS!
NEXT Saturday, we will gather again at 10:00 and launch a HUGE "lit drop"! This is our effort to get these 10,000 slate cards out to Richardson Democrats. The slate cards will have the full Democratic ballot, highlighted for the specific voter, and will give a link to information on where and when to vote. They are door hangers, so you won't need to knock on the door, you just walk up, hang it on the door knob and go to your next house. We need a huge turn out to get this done. We'll actually start on Monday, but the weekend will be the big push to get them on doors before Early Voting starts on Monday, the 21st. Please dig deep and let's get this done!! Register here for details!
It's also push time for our candidates... please reach out to their campaigns at the links below and find out how you can help get them over the finish line!
Representative Mihaela Plesa - HD70. She has been targeted by the governor because she stood up to him when he tried to bargain with her to get her support for his voucher scam. He's putting his considerable weight (money and other resources) behind her opponent. Mihaela was endorsed by the Dallas Morning News this week! Please find a way to support her campaign!
Averie Bishop - HD112. She is working incredibly hard to flip this longtime Republican hold out in Dallas County. Polls say that she is tied with the incumbent, Angie Chen Button who is extraordinarily well-funded, but we know that hard work will win over money! Their campaign has a lot of opportunities to get involved, from phone banking and texting to door knocking and lit dropping. There is something for everyone to do!
Sam Eppler - CD24. Sam has been working full time on getting the word out that there is a strong alternative to the MAGA extremist, Beth Van Duyne. This gerrymandered district goes from Richardson out to northwest of Fort Worth, but our candidate is so qualified, so exemplary, such a smart and hard worker, that we believe we can win! Please find a way to engage with them, whether you are in the district or not! He has 175 volunteers - let's help him get to 200!
George King - State Board of Education 12. George has 40 years experience in education in the Plano ISD - 20 years as a teacher and 20 years as a principal. We need his wisdom and perspective on this crucial board. They decide on the curriculum for our schools and are currently trying to insert a Biblical curriculum into our public schools, violating the tenet of separation of church and state and marginalizing any student that doesn't follow that interpretation of the Christian Bible. George is running against an incumbent whose only claim to any educational experience is having been a salesperson for educational books. We need his voice on this board. Please support him!
JOIN US for Allred vs Cruz Debate on October 15th! We will be there to cheer Colin on and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow Democrats! We will also have Colin Allred for Senate yard signs! We had a great time at the Presidential Debate last month and we'll have more room this time with an outdoor screen added to the party! Register for details!
It's time folks...
Let's Do This.
