As the November elections approach, we are reminded that democracy depends on active participation. Voting is one of the most important ways citizens can make their voices heard and help shape the future of our country. But civic engagement should not stop at casting of our own ballots. Each of us can play an important role in motivating others to vote as well. An effective way to do this is by sending postcards out to registered votes who don’t always participate in elections. An easy way to do this is by using Activate America to send postcards to prospective voters.
The Activate America website (https://activateamerica.vote) provides free of charge lists of names and addresses of prospective voters to send post cards to, and a short script to write on the post cards that encourages the receiver of the postcards to vote for candidates that will put the people of our country first, not corporations and the wealthy.
We all benefit when more citizens take part in the democratic process. Higher voter participation strengthens our communities and ensures that a broader range of voices are represented.
This November, let us encourage one another to stay informed, participate respectfully, and make voting a shared civic responsibility. Democracy works best when everyone has a chance to be heard.
Folks, if I’m not mistaken, this is an ad for the Democrat party hiding as an LTE. Don’t be fooled when you find out these folks advocate only for getting out the vote for Democrats. You know, the many Democrats who put the welfare of criminals and terrorists over the American people. And the increasing number of Democrats who are emerging as the Communist wing of the Democrat party.
If you want to pony up the money to pay for postcard stamps (to the tune of 65 cents apiece), go for it, but you’re better off taking your money, buying a Danish and a cup of coffee, and wondering where Activate America is getting their money. Check out OpenSecrets.org to see where they’re getting their money and where they’re spending their money. And for anyone getting a postcard to vote for Democrats, have a good laugh that someone wasted 65 cents, then ignore it. Put America first, not criminals and terrorists who’ve invaded our country.
