And here is HOW we do this:

RUN FOR SOMETHING

"Recruiting and Supporting Young Progressives"
Since launching in January 2017, Run for Something has recruited nearly 100,000 people across all 50 states to run for state or local office.
We provide a safety net for new and exciting progressive leaders — at all stages of their journey — helping them run efficient, strategic, grassroots, driven campaigns while feeling supported throughout the process.

If you don’t take our word for it, hear how we help from Run for Something candidates, partners, mentors, volunteers, and alumni.



https://runforsomething.net/book/
By Amanda Litman
On January 20, 2017, Inauguration Day, we launched Run for Something, a political action committee dedicated to helping young people run for office by lowering the barriers to entry. We launched a website, opened up a bank account, filled out the paperwork, and sent a press release to a list we acquired from some friends in PR. Then we emailed our friends, posted on Facebook, and crossed our fingers.

The immediate reaction was astounding. Thousands and thousands of people signed up to say they want to run for office. Volunteers started dedicating hours of their weeks to talk to people about running. Hundreds of Obama, Clinton, and Bernie Sanders campaign alumni joined folks from across the progressive movement to mentor our candidates for free. We’re supporting our candidates with resources and funding—and, already, it’s making a difference in school board, city council, and state legislative races across the country.

Our goal is to change the landscape of the world by planting a whole lot of seeds in the form of young progressive candidates. I hope this book can help.

Many Many Thanks to All the SANE voters in my Commonwealth. 🤗

Now I know for sure I'll be able to deal with my anxieties the next few years.

Hope still rules!!!

Gonna quietly celebrate for a bit and send my agnostic prayers to wherever they may or may not go.

Then it's back to work, after all 2024 is not that far off.

The media & pundits want you to believe young voters aren’t showing up. That couldn’t be further from the truth. What we’re seeing across the country is that it’s young Democrats, NOT young Republicans, who are surpassing 2018 turnout rates. Data in next Tweet:

The large majority comments to this tweet are absolutely awesome and uplifting. If you twitter make sure to check them out.

I believe that this generation which has been through the crucible of school shootings like no other in history, has suffered under opressive student debt, fought back against the Opiod Crisis, and experienced first hand 4 years of Racist, Misogynistic, Authoritarian Political Insanity is going to rock the very Earth and help generate the biggest Blue Wave ever.

So let's all get out there and HELP THEM LEAD THE WAY!

QOP is planning on shitting all over The Constitution if they win the House and/or Senate in 2022.

THAT is why TFG is trying to extend the game.

He, and the rest of the QOP, know that as soon as they get 2/3rds of the reins of power back, Democracy and The Constitution is dead.

THAT is why they NEED to keep control of The Court.

THAT is why The Democrats ignoring expanding it to 11 or 13 puts all of US at peril.

It also explains the literally killer comedy team of Abbot & DeathSentance, and H.Walker, and Gaetz, and MTG, and Cruz, and Rubio, and Hawley.

They all THINK they are going to remain in power REGARDLESS of the Vote totals.

And the ONLY SURE way to defeat their nefarious purposes is to Rock The Vote and cause a HUGE Blue Wave at the polls.

One that cannot be overcome by any sort of shenanigans by the traitorous rethuglican party in toto. All of them - not just Maga't idiots.

Studies show emotions sway voters more then facts. Sane folk are losing the emotion game due to M$M

1% propaganda. They are greedy and will not go easily into the Night - they will drag the rest of us with them if they can - they are all Sociopaths.

Until we recognize that groups like TLP and Midas Touch are showing us the way to win EMOTIONS not just minds, we will continue to struggle with just appealing to peeps ' intellectual' side, as it seems most Democratic campaigns try to do...until the Rethugs scare the indies then the cycle of negative and ineffective response ads begin...

Study the past election cycles and you will SEE this.

We Dems have a really good chance here - TFG and the Hate Party appeal to all the really EVIL emotions, the crazy ones.

The old effectively cold calculating GOP ad strategists ARE NOW ON OUR SIDE.

We need to make use of their talents while we can.

EMOTIONS WIN ELECTIONS.

GOTV WINS ELECTIONS.

So when doing GOTV, go for their emotions, their hearts, not just their minds.

Roevember does this. 1/6 Hearings do this. Public distaste of TFG's maniacal misogynistic racist speeches play to this. MTG's and Boebert's moronic rants play to this. Disgust of QANON plays to this. Neo-Nazism plays to this. BLM plays to this - (yes, it really does help Democrats emotionally).

We Democrats know how to win. We have the issues on our side to win.

We just need to get out there and work hard to have the largest Midterm Cycle turnout EVAH and WE THE PEOPLE will save the Constitution.

Easy Peasy.
