Chop Wood, Carry Ohio 5/6

Hi, Team OH.

It’s on, folks. Trump is the candidate. It’s scary, and yet we know how to beat him. We know how to beat ALL of them. And your adopted state, Ohio, will be one of the most important states on the electoral map this November.

• Electing Sherrod Brown again is critical to holding the Senate.

• Passing the fair maps ballot measure could literally remake the Ohio legislature.

• Flipping three seats on the State Supreme Court in Ohio could be transformative for protecting stakeholders’ rights.

So let’s not agonize. Let’s organize. Here are a few ways for you to do that right now:

1. Activate America now has phonebanking for Sherrod Brown three days a week. We really, really need to get folks out for this election. You’ll mostly be leaving voicemails! Please sign up here.

2. Ohio has been badly gerrymandered for nearly 15 years, but they finally, finally have a movement to get a citizen initiative to end gerrymandering on the ballot in November. But we need to give the Ohio League of Women Voters—one of the main backers of the initiative—the resources to get the tens of thousands of signatures needed to get it on the ballot. The wonderful David Pepper is spearheading this effort.  Please give through this link if you can, any amount would be a huge help.

3. If you haven’t yet joined Blue Ohio just do it. DO IT! You’ll thank me.

4. There are FOUR MORE DAYS to mail postcards for Sherrod Brown for the primary. If you have cards you can grab addresses from Activate America here.

OK, all. More soon. Hang in there. We’ve got this.
