2020 ELECTION UPDATES

Let’s Give Joe the Senate!

Control of the Senate will be decided in Georgia on January 5, 2021

If Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock win, Mitch McConnell will not be Senate Majority Leader. He will not be able to thwart legislation, block Cabinet appointees, or ram through Supreme Court judges.

Help give Democrats control of the Senate and honor Stacey Abrams!

Stacey did not concede. Her non-concession speech is a landmark moment for American civil rights. Stacey fought back. She organized to tear down barriers to the ballot, to empower overlooked communities, and to build multi-racial coalitions. Stacey Abrams launched Fair Fight.

Dear Delaware Democrat, 

The Delaware Democratic Party is excited to announce a unique and interactive approach to Election Day that is mindful of the need for responsible social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Instead of hosting its traditional election night party in a hotel ballroom, the Party is excited to be partnering with Wilmington's Short Order Production House to produce a unique and interactive election night broadcast. 

The two-hour event will feature dozens of Delaware Democratic Party candidates, Party leaders, stakeholders, and other guests. Running from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m., the broadcast will be hosted by Delaware Democratic Party Chair Erik Raser-Schramm, Democratic City Committee Chair Cassandra Marshall, and State Party Executive Director Jesse Chadderdon. 

Delaware Democratic Party committee members will be able to join the "event room" and chat with participants and other guests, while members of the press and public will be able to watch the broadcast via the Party's Facebook page and Web site. The event will also be broadcast live on DeTv. 

As a Party member, please use the following credentials to join the exclusive interactive broadcast: events.deldems.org/election-2020 

Password: DELDEMS2020 

The livestream will also be available to the general public via the Delaware Democratic Party's Facebook page and www.deldems.org. 

Thanks so much for all your work to elect Democrats up and down the ballot in 2020. We are looking forward to celebrating a historic election night with each of you! 

Best,

Travis R. Williams

Hello all, 

Over the past few months, I have had the opportunity to work and interact with many of you as an organizer for Senator Coons re-election campaign. Recently, as I am sure many of you are aware, I made the transition to be the Regional Field Director for the Coordinated Campaign in Sussex County. My goal is to have the highest voter turnout among Democrats that this county has ever seen. We are going to call every registered Democrat in this county and do everything in our power to get them to the polls, or to vote by mail and to vote early.

What I am looking for is volunteers to make this goal achievable. We will be calling voters through the VPB (Virtual Phone Bank) linked to Votebuilder, and will be having in person, socially distant phone banks at HQ in Georgetown on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 5pm - 7pm. In addition, I will be staffing the Georgetown HQ Monday - Friday, from 10am - 4pm. 

It is my hope that you all are able to spread this within your respective communities and groups, to find anyone who is willing to volunteer. We are asking that each volunteer take just 1 hour of their time per week and make 40 phone calls. Feel free to pass along my email, brandon@deldems.org, and my phone number (302) 668-7513. I would be happy to train anyone during the day or virtually and get them started making calls for 1 hour each week. Even if they would like to stop in HQ during the week to make sure their calls are getting done, I will be here. I am incredibly excited by the potential I see for Democrats in Sussex County, and I think that this is the year to make a statement by having the highest voter turnout we have seen. 

We have 41 days until November 3rd, less than 6 weeks. I am asking everyone if they can give 6 hours of their time, between now and then, to be able to say that they made a difference in the most consequential election in our Country's history. 

Please, do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions you may have, or to send anyone interested in volunteering my way. Thank you and I look forward to continue working with all of you to #TurnSussexBlue

Best, 

Brandon Nitsche
