CANCELLED: “Turn Out the Vote Thursdays” at Ix Art Park
October 26, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm
No more work at Ix needed, we wrote and mailed approximately 7,500 postcards! This is far more than we’ve ever done before, and it happened due to:
- Superb organizing by Mary Ann Harris, Nancy Damon, and Suzanne Michels – huge kudos!
- Sincere gratitude to everyone who pitched in throughout the Summer and Fall by writing postcards and/or donating money to buy postcards and stamps.
So our Thursday at Ix work is done for this cycle, no more meet-ups at IX Park this Fall!
Now for the details about those 7500 postcards:
- 700 to new City of Charlottesville voters
- 1,800 to new Albemarle County voters
- 2,000 to City residents
- 500 for Rachel Levy in Louisa County
- 500 for Michael Feggans in Virginia Beach
- 1,000 for Susanna Gibson in Henrico County
- 1,000 for Lily Franklin in Montgomery County.
It was a pleasure spending time with old friends and getting to meet new friends — spending our Thursday afternoons together working to help elect the best candidates locally and statewide! We’re most definitely looking forward to sitting around the picnic tables in the Spring when the BIG 2024 presidential election cycle begins.
We hope most of you will join us for the big Sunday October 28 Canvassing push with Sen. Mark Warner at Pen Park!
And… make sure to remind all your Dem-leaning friends, both City and County, of the importance of voting; we can’t take victory for granted, it’s all about turnout!
