Mitch, as you say, we need to vote to lead Congress. To reach those non voters, we need more communication by the party to reach groups in our community who don't have access to this great platform and the work of independent journalists to inform about what's at stake. Those who may not have a computer, or use a phone for social media, and only listen to Fox need awareness. Dems need to fire up the entire community with accessible, informational content over time until 2026, if they can create a coherent message that resonates. Events, door knocking that is strategic based on research, and messaging could help more people become aware of their civic duty, and especially at this moment. Thanks for all you do to help us move forward. Your bonus section is great as well!

Really important points. Knocking on doors, community events, Rotary... so important and effective. I'm going to write a post about these non-tech approaches. Giving you a shoutout for bringing this to my attention. Thanks!

Just added a powerful bonus section at the end of my article "The 2026 Midterms Could Save America — If We Show Up." It’s called “7 Smart Ways to Talk About the Midterms With People You Love.” Take a look and share these tips w/ your family and friends.

You can post, protest, and push back all you want, but if we don’t show up at the polls, none of it will matter. The midterms are our shot. Our only shot. If we win back the majority, we take back control. It’s that simple. It’s that urgent. Let’s get it done.
