They are driving me NUTS with texts!!!!

Just a little proofreading note– I think the text for the Warnock thermometer is still off? Still says “recount” and the number amount seems strange?
THANKS for doing these, in any case!

Yeah, it should say runoff! I’m in the parking lot at the vets but when I get home I’ll fix that.

22 free, original PostCard designs to download and print for the Georgia runoff elections.

Done. Was thinking about this yesterday… I am sure there will be complaints about West Coast liberruls involving ourselves in this race. GOOD.

@MazeDancer:
Any idea when addresses are going to be available?

@SiubhanDuinne:
If I knew, you’d know. Tried begging again today. Didn’t work.
Recount #2 takes precedence over sending links for purchased voter lists.

I wonder what the best use of money here is going to be – if over $200mm has been dumped in the race already, how much more marginal money is going to really matter? I would think the best way to utilize contributions would be to drive mail-in ballot requests, along with general voter registration, for the next week, and then spending way, way more money on regular in-person GOTV. There needs to be some baseline of TV/digital/radio support, but at this point, we really need to optimize ground game/turnout. I would leave that to Abrams to figure out what works best.

@PsiFighter37: If you head over to votesaveamerica, there’s a fund that goes to 14 (?) different GOTV operations, with a pretty broad diversity including Asian Americans, Latinos, and conservation voters, plus a separate fund that can go to candidates/Fair Fight. Because, yes, that’s where I am too. GOTV!

@something fabulous: What seems strange about the number for Warnock?

@something fabulous:
I think it’s fixed now.

@MazeDancer:
Got it, okay. I don’t mean to bug you. Is the hangup with the GA Dems?
WaterGirl
@DougJ: Since it was a copy from a previous thread, I took the liberty of fixing it here and in the original. Figured you wouldn’t mind. Hope I was right about that. :-)

Gave to both candidates and Ms. Abrams group today

@raven: Ugh. I really, really hope they aren’t under the impression that flooding the zone on social media is what they need to do. Dems need an epic ground GOTV game. Most of the postmortems I’ve read on why downticket Dems didn’t do better in places like KY and FL this cycle came down to one thing: Republicans connected with their base f2f and on the ground; Dems — doing the sensible thing during Covid — stuck mostly to media buys and “virtual” events. I don’t know what we can do about that given the circumstances, but it is what it is. If we can spend some money on figuring out how to keep f2f canvassing safe (and effective), that would probably be a good idea.

@SiubhanDuinne: Problem is with the SoS office. They sell the lists. And used to deliver pronto.
The lists are sold by country. They are tens of thousands of names. Every registered voter in the county.

@raven: text STOP

I received my Georgia absentee ballot in the mail today! I plan to fill it out in the morning and put it in the local dropbox. Time to send the Inside Traitors home in January, I hope!

Economic anxiety?

@Joe Falco: Have you contacted all your friends and family in Georgia? They are saying that is one of the things that contributed to the win on Nov 3.
