We found some scary stuff in our candy this year — happy GOTV Halloweekend! 🗳️🎃 Make sure to remove voters who have already voted from your lists, refresh your turfs as needed, and remember that leftover candy in the field office doesn't count as a meal. 😉

Collective action is bigger than any single person, but today we lost a giant. Dolores Huerta spent seven decades organizing and fighting for farmworkers, immigrants, and women, and children. She never stopped and she never backed down. We are better today because of her life’s work. (1/2)

More volunteers on the doors. More volunteers coming back. As of mid-October, MiniVAN users are up 48% compared to this time in the last midterm cycle, and users who’ve knocked doors for at least two shifts are up 41%! 🔥

The final stretch is here, and our team is out in the field alongside you, knocking doors to help elect more Democrats across the country. Big thanks to Maya, Charlotte, and Brandon for putting in the work out on the doors!

Text in white reads: "Share where you’re knocking doors and tag @ngpvan so we can hype you up during the final sprint toward Election Day!"

Just sharing a friendly reminder to encourage your supporters to vote early so you can remove them from your lists and focus on those who haven't voted yet! 🙌

Dry Run Weekend #1 is here! Confirm your shifts, cut your turf, and note what works and what doesn’t. Better to catch it now and fix it now than to find out on GOTV Weekend.

Our team joined the Philadelphia Democratic Party’s Annual Fall Dinner last week. Governor Shapiro and President Biden rallied the room, and the message was clear: we’re here to win this fall. With the midterms just weeks away, we must keep pushing because every minute counts.

Last week, we joined Emerge's Fall Luncheon to support their mission of empowering Democratic women nationwide to run for office, and heard from Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi. We're proud to stand with the women ready to lead — let's elect more of them in 27 days. 💪
