This is our final “Good News Friday” post before the midterms, and we’re feeling more positive than we ever thought possible. (Do yourself a favor if you need an injection of hope: hit the Like button on a few folks’ posts of themselves with their I Voted sticker. Your feed will turn into an absolute hopescroll bonanza with dozens of smiling strangers sporting their voting stickers!)
If that isn’t enough sunshine for you, you can also listen to our latest live and in-person event with Heather Cox Richardson! She joined us (and over 800 Red Wine & Blue members) in Michigan last weekend along with State Senator Mallory McMorrow.
Across the country, women in the Red Wine & Blue community have been getting together to vote and to reach out to everyone they know. And every vote counts — since 2018, more than 700 elections have been decided by less than 10 votes.
This year, friend-to-friend organizing helped Hungarians oust their fascist leader Viktor Orbán, helped Brazilians vote out their far-right president Flávio Bolsonaro, and the same thing is about to happen right here in America.
But it’ll only happen if we make it happen. If we talk to every person we know about voting in these crucial midterms. It’s what all of these amazing RWB members have been doing, from Donuts & Democracy events to appearing on Rachel Maddow!
It’s not too late to sign our voting pledge and make a difference before Election Day. We have four days — let’s do this!
Together, we do this ❣️🌞 We are here for the journey forward 💖
