Ohio: Vote NO in August to defeat Issue 1 - a constitutional amendment that would end Majority Rule and empower special interests!

Issue 1 is a proposed constitutional amendment that seeks to raise the threshold for passing all future constitutional amendments from a simple majority to 60%. It is gaining national attention as a political power grab intended to change the rules and rob Ohio voters of their voice.

On April 4th, there’s going to be a must-win Supreme Court race in Wisconsin for Democrats.

The winner of the April 4th election will determine whether the court remains under control of Republican justices or flips to a Democratic majority. The primary is on February 21st.

Both the Civics Center and Activate America have postcarding into Wisconsin for this race. This race will be key for reproductive rights and voting rights in the state.

If you have your own postcards or can provide your own, you can write with Activate America. Cards must be mailed by February 9th.

If you don’t have your own postcards and want to help help register young people in Wisconsin, you can order cards from the Civics Center. Cards must be mailed by February 3rd.

@TonyStark Keeping the house for Democrats is huge for abortion rights. I just talked to someone this morning that is in another district for 2/7 who didn’t know the date was set.

Now she knows but lots of people don’t. Help out however you can!

I’ve been posting about the special State House elections coming up on February 7th in Pennsylvania. Democrats in the state worked very hard and flipped House control from Republicans to Democrats in November.

The polls are in the Democrats’ favor but we can take nothing for granted. Republicans are especially interested in trying to take the seat in the 32nd district. Fortunately, Postcards to Voters has initiated a campaign to help Joe McAndrew get elected.

If you’re already approved with PTV, you can text, email, or Slack message to get addresses. If you’re new to PTV, start the approval process to be ready for the next campaign. PTV is organized, fun, and works. Help the Pennsylvania House stay blue.

Please boost this- Allegheny County, PA!
We have 3 Special Elections taking place on February 7th, 2023. These are to fill empty seats in the PA State House. The seats were formerly held by Dems, and are the seats that now have the Democratic Party in the minority in the PA State House (99-101).
We cannot assume these are "easy" wins. People need to get out and vote. This is important. 🗳️ alleghenycounty.us/elections/s

On Election Day in November, Democrats won a state House Majority.

Due to 2 House members being elevated to higher office and the passing of another, there are 3 on February 7. Republicans are desperate to take these seats, so it's essential to get the vote.

Information and a volunteer link:

PA-32: Joe McAndrew is the former executive director of the Allegheny County Democratic Committee. From a working family, he is committed to ensuring the state legislature puts families first.

PA-34: Abigail Salisbury serves on the Swissvale Borough Council, spending the past two years as its President. She is also a small business owner, working as a practicing solo attorney.

PA-35: Matthew Gergely serves as McKeesport’s finance director, and previously served as city administrator and as a McKeesport Area School District official. He will fight for schools and PA families.

Pennsylvania Allegheny County friends-

On February 7th, there will be 3 special elections to fill the seats vacant from the election of Austin Davis to Lt, Governor, Summer Lee to the U.S. House, and from the unfortunate passing of Mike DeLuca.

The balance of power in the state House of Representatives will be determined by voters in three districts in the eastern part of the county: the 32nd, the 34th, and the 35th. Democrats need to win all three in order to solidify control of the House and keep Republicans from undermining the legislative process by passing bad constitutional amendments, which bypass the Governor.

Things on the PA Republican agenda include anti-abortion rights legislation and other right wing agenda items.

Melanie Stansbury worked very hard to win this race.

The campaign organizers had many, many volunteers who made thousands of calls and sent thousands of hand-written postcards. It's really important to get involved in get out the vote work.

Republicans had hoped to reduce the Dem margin to the single digits and massively failed. Biden won the state by 23 points but Stansbury's lead is around 30 points and higher than Deb Haaland's was. While small in national prominence, this does not bode well for the America Last party. :voteblue:
