thisfinecrewThis time, a deliberate, data-driven attempt to flip state legislatures:
The Intercept: Small Donors Suddenly Pour In to Flip Eight State-Level Seats — and Legislatures
Remember, state governments control drawing of districts and writing of voting rules, as well as having power over things like abortion restrictions, should Roe v. Wade be overturned.
Data for Politics: Give Smart -- with details of the individual candidates and who they're opposing
Most memorable opponent, IMHO, Sylvia Allen: She’s also a creationist who wants to make church attendance mandatory, and when her prison guard son was investigated for bribing inmates for sex she tried to pass a law to make that legal.
Act Blue: Give Smart -- donate here!
And between the time I started to draft this post this morning and posting it this evening:
Data For Politics: data for politics #30: Give Smart 2, EveryDistrict -- -- the first slate took off so well that they teamed with EveryDistrict to fund 8 more candidates who might have a significant impact
Act Blue: Give Smart 2 -- donate to the second slate here
