Action 1: Canvass in Kenosha on Saturday
Wisconsin election results may determine the future of our country. Wisconsin statewide elections tend to be won by less than 1% of votes, so a little extra help from us this midterm may be critical. We helped in 2020, and now in 2022 we can help our northern neighbors flip a US Senate seat from MAGA Ron Johnson to progressive Mandela Barnes. We can support the reelection of Gov. Evers whose veto holds back the extreme GOP gerrymandered legislature.
Come canvass with us! We start at the Kenosha County Democratic Party Office (5712 7th Avenue in Kenosha) for orientation. There we will meet Representative Tip McGuire, and Kenosha Co. canvassers. We will train you and partner folks with you so you will be confident to do your part in this joint effort.
After canvassing we will debrief together to share our experiences in the Kenosha Dems office. After the canvass, we have been invited 15 minutes away for some fun in Racine. There, we will meet with the Secretary of the Wisconsin Democratic Party, Chair of Racine Co. Dems, and partake in the once yearly Racine celebration of Party on the Pavement in downtown Racine, where we can get lunch.
Once you sign up we will send you more information, make sure you have a ride, maps, etc.
Sign up to canvass in Kenosha on Saturday, September 17 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Action 2: Join the First Michigan Monday Phone Bank
The road to control of the U.S. House runs through Michigan in 2022, with 3 of the state’s Congressional races rated toss-ups. We’re phone banking for Congressman Dan Kildee, who is locked in a tight race that we can’t afford to lose!
Our calls will also benefit the top of the ticket. Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Attorney General Dana Nessel, and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson all face right-wing, election-denying extremist opponents who seek to undermine democracy and basic freedoms.
With an abortion rights measure on the November ballot, Michigan is ground zero in the struggle for reproductive freedom. Come join the fight for these progressive candidates and stand up for women everywhere.
Sign up to phone bank on Monday, September 19 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. and join the fight for control of Congress and reproductive freedom!
