Don’t want your dough, just go vote

Tomorrow is Election Day. Vote!

You can find all the info you need to vote here: IWillVote.com 

Unless you’ve already voted, in which case, good job! Now get your family and friends to do the same. (Unless, of course, they’re planning to vote Republican. In that case, maybe take them out to brunch. A long brunch.)

There are hugely important elections happening all across the country. Governorships. Special Congressional elections. Ballot initiatives. Mayoral races. State Supreme Court contests. Constitutional amendments are on the ballot in many states, too. 

So please: make a plan to vote.

I imagine you might be a tad nervous. I am. Especially after last year.

It’s time to stop Trump and his MAGA henchmen and make gains towards restoring our collective sanity. And there’s only one way to do that. So, vote!

Thanks,

Al

P.S. I’m tempted to use this perfunctory postscript as an excuse to make another ask. So, I will. Vote! Our future as a nation depends on it.

P.P.S. Forward this email to everyone you know! It makes a bigger difference than you think. 

Midwest Values PAC supports candidates & causes that share our values.

Somehow, it’s been 20 years since I started Midwest Values PAC to help Democrats win elections — from progressive organizations to state legislatures to Congress to the White House — who share the values I grew up with in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.

Since 2006, Midwest Values PAC has invested more than $4 million in 341 candidates and organizations — and counting. 

Of course, none of this happens without you (or supporters like you) who care enough to pitch in.

As we mark our 20th anniversary, the work is more urgent than ever. This year, we have a big job: flip the House, take the Senate, and win up and down the ballot at the state and local level.

To mark our 20th year, we’ve set an ambitious goal: 26,000 contributions by Election Day 2026.

Thanks for being part of this fight, and for sticking with us for 20 years (or for just joining — welcome!).

P.S. Over the years, okay, decades, we’ve helped Democrats win tough races all across the country by investing early, intelligently, and strategically. That’s how you flip seats. That’s how you protect democracy. And that’s how you stop the worst impulses of a president who never should have been president in the first place.
