Dig In.Thoughts on getting out the vote and our impact.

I want to share with you how energizing my Saturday morning was. Blue Action Democrats President, Carrie Collier-Brown and I joined about 25 other people block walking for Joseph Kopser, who's running for Congress in TX-21 and Steve Kling, who's running for Texas State Senate. Carrie and I completed a list of about 50 houses south of William Cannon near Escarpment, working together at first and then splitting up for a few blocks. You might have seen our Facebook live. One of our first houses was a woman who didn't realize how many Democrats were active in her neighborhood and is planning on attending one of our meetings. We met folks who were excited to vote and others who didn't know there was an election coming up! And even one member of Blue Action! #GSD But the most amazing moments were the doors we knocked where lifelong Republicans told us they were voting Democrat for the first time in their lives. We heard others say that our visit convinced them to vote for Kopser and Kling. We were able to talk about important issues like rising property taxes, education funding, and reducing the chaos in Washington. There are signs that the blue wave is building. But we need your help to make it happen. Each person we reach could cast a decisive vote in November.
Will you join me for a block walk in Southwest Austin? If you're not ready to step out on your own, you can opt to be a block walk assistant, where you'll be paired with someone experienced. If you can't walk at all, consider a donation or become a member. All the money we raise goes to get stuff done before November! Thank you! See you soon, Michelle Reinhardt Communications Chair, Blue Action Democrats
