Check In 18 October

[tanaqui]

With election day getting close, it's time for another check in.

We already have an I Voted! post (thanks acelightning) for you to tell us about your early voting experiences. You can also tell us what you've been up to in our poll and in comments.

Here are the posts that have been made in the last week which are still ongoing actions. Don't forget to check out the previous couple of check-in posts, because they had some good donation, action and GOTV resources

I Voted!

Please continue to let us know about actions and events, especially phone and textbanking, GOTV and vote protection initiatives, and slates and individuals to donate to.

I've been volunteering Back to Blue PA (which is the Biden/State Dem campaign). We could use more out-of-state volunteers to phone and text bank in the lead up to the election: https://www.mobilize.us/BackToBluePA/ (Canvassing opportunities are also available for those near or in-state).

PA is a critical swing state - in 2016, Trump won it by 44,000 votes, less than 5 votes per precinct.

If anyone would like to be hooked into my specific county work, email me at asboyle at gmail dot com and I will connect you to my field organizer!

A neighbor and I watched Joe Biden's town hall meeting last week, and we agree that he did a wonderful job making the case for why he should be President. But he always does a good job in my books. In addition, I just registered for a Zoom event taking place tomorrow evening with a local environmental group. Thanks to said neighbor for forwarding me their invite.

I sadly have to keep saying no to requests for phone banking, but at least I get a "thank you for working at the polls!" reply when I explain.
