Dear Tildenites,

We are partnering and supporting several initiatives throughout the City supporting Blue candidates near and far.  We have one month until the midterms and a team full of drive and with the power of the people to get Democratic candidates elected.

1. Sister District NY12-13-14 If you recall, Sister district came to our general meeting in the Spring. They working hard to support Tina Davis Democrat for Pennsylvania’s Senate District 6.

Saturday, October 20, Sister District is offering free transit to visit Bucks County. PA and knock on doors to talk about Tina. Thier bus leaves Midtown Manhattan at 8:30 am and gets you home by dinnertime. Join them!  they are making this trip in partnership with other local teams and with EMILY’s List, so seats are filling quickly. Grab yours today! 

Facebook initiatives: Leadership at Sister District HQ have kicked off an experiment testing whether folks become likelier to vote when an activist tags them on Facebook. They’re testing this idea in four states including Pennsylvania. If you’re game to tap this turnout possibility, read this primer.  Then sign up by midnight on October 11 and prepare for training the next day.
