Working for Washington
10 days until Election Day! Tomorrow is SINGLE DIGITS!
Last week we had the incredible opportunity to host California Governor Gavin Newsom at our Seattle Campaign HQ. After firing up a crowd of nearly 100 volunteers to make dials and knock doors, he joined our Field Organizers in making phone calls – maybe YOU were one of the lucky ones to have the Governor of California calling you to get your ballots in!
This week, our Coordinated Campaign surpassed two HUGE milestones: 140,000 door knocks and 760,000 dials! Folks are getting off the pollercoaster and doing something. Find out how you can help push us over our voter contact goals at the end of this newsletter.
Next week we will be in the midst of our statewide GOTV tour hitting every corner of the state so the Message from the Chair will be a short one.
Don’t Be Spooked! Cast Your Ballot!
Our social media team wrapped up the final installment of their “ballot haunting” trilogy. Get into the Halloween spirit and check out their latest video below. And remember: get your ballot in…. before your ballots gets you!
Hopium Chronicles
Last week, I was privileged to join Indivisible WA Podcast Host Stephan Cox, U.S. Rep. Adam Smith, and Democratic strategist and creator of the Hopium Chronicles Simon Rosenberg for a Town Hall on our current election season. I encourage everyone who needs a bit of HOPE and JOY right now to listen to their conversation here.

What I’m Reading
The Very Real Scenario Where Trump Loses and Takes Power Anyway, Politico Magazine – The best way for us to avoid these kinds of nightmare scenarios is to win convincingly. Polls says its close, but if we turn out our voters and bring along most of the undecideds, we can make the margin too big to steal. We have 10 days. Let’s get it done.
