RE-ENROLL VBM PHONEBANK AT HOME

Florida’s vote-by-mail rules

changed as of January 1, 2025.

All voters now have to request a mail

ballot every two years. Over 1.2

million Florida Democrats (and

over 95,000 in Pinellas!) who voted in

2024 had to request a new vote-by-

mail ballot. Pinellas Democrats made

over 100,000 phone calls before the

Primary Election. We have made

progress. Many Democrats have re-

enrolled. But not all. 

JOIN US! We aren’t done yet!  

You may make calls from home

anytime between 9:00 AM – 7:00 PM

Monday – Saturday, and 11:00 AM –

7:00 PM on Sundays! You pick the

times that work for you from the

comfort of your own home. Training

tools and resources will be provided

after you sign-up. 

If you would like any additional

training or support, please feel free to

sign-up to join us in person on

Sundays from noon to 2:00 at the

Pinellas Democrats Headquarters.

STATEWIDE ACTION NIGHTS

English | Español | Kreyòl

Join Florida Democrats for our

Statewide Action Nights, with

phonebanks running each night

from 5-9 PM.

– Florida Democrats are running

ahead of the national environment.

We’ve flipped 40 seats from red to

blue since 2024, and we have a real

opportunity to win up and down the

ballot this November. But we have to

put in the work — and that’s why we’re

so glad you’re here.

– Together, we’ll call voters who may

not vote this year unless they hear

from us about Angie Nixon for U.S.

Senate, David Jolly for Governor, and

all the Democrats on their ballots.

– Join volunteers from across the state

to make calls from home using our

Scale to Win dialer and help us reach

the voters we need to win on Election Day.

– You can call with a smartphone,

laptop, tablet, or computer. Your

personal phone number stays hidden,

and calls come from a Florida

Democratic Party number. You’ll only

be connected to voters who answer, so

you won’t spend the night listening to

the phone ring.

Want to make it a night with friends?

Invite a few people over to call

together. Our House Party toolkit has

what you need to get started.

turning people power into voter

power. Unlike previous No Kings

actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not

purely a protest. Instead, on October

“ALL SOULS TO THE POLLS”

VOTE EARLY SUNSET CELEBRATION

Our vote shines as bright and bold as a

Gulf Coast sunset, a true reflection of

the strength and spirit of our freedom.

We take a moment to come together,

celebrate and share hope for a brighter

tomorrow. This isn’t a protest, it’s a

“vote test.” Let’s connect and

commit to voting early.

Bring your beach chairs, pack the

cooler, and deck out yourself, your

spot, or your ride with red, white, and

blue—or any fun voting-inspired

theme you choose! Most importantly,

bring your dedication to voting early

and helping others do the same. The

goal? To make history—not through

protest this time, but by letting our

vote be our voice and aiming for the

highest early voting turnout EVER!

We’ll soak in the day’s beauty, letting

the sunset inspire change and hope for

the future. Community and nature

hold the power to heal, and together

we’ll share and reflect in that energy.

Please follow all beach rules—while

the official event end time is 6:30 pm,

while sunset is around 7:20. If severe

weather hits, the gathering will be

canceled, but our mission stays strong.

Try to park near “the High & Dry

Grill/Gulf side” (look

for balloons on cars). Parking is free,

and arriving early gets you “the best”

spot. Voter Action Pinellas will be

there until 6:30 to answer voting

questions and share info about

upcoming elections—we’re lucky to

have their support!

Together, by believing in our power as

a community that votes early and with

purpose, we become the change our

democracy needs and deserves.

And now… a word from No Kings:

We decide who represents us.

We decide what comes next.

For more than a year, millions of

people have come together to reject

the idea that power belongs to kings,

billionaires, or politicians who believe

they are above the people and the law.

I AM JANE DOE St. PETERSBURG

never heard. We are all Jane Doe.

We’re bringing our community

together to uplift women, support

survivors, and stand with allies. This is

a space to talk, listen, connect, and

begin figuring out what we can build

together to realistically help

the women of Pinellas county.

Bring your signs.

Bring your energy.

Bring a friend.

Wear teal for sexual assault.

Wear purple for domestic violence.

INTERFAITH FREEDOM VIGIL AND

SIGN-WAVING PROTEST

Join the Florida Interfaith Coalition

and allies for a Freedom Vigil as we

stand in solidarity with immigrant

families and demand an end to the

detention and deportation of our

nonviolent, law-abiding immigrant

community neighbors, siblings, and

friends. Around the state

people gather at the

same time each week outside local

jails and detention centers, where

immigrants await transfer and

deportation. We believe that our

immigrant neighbors should not be

held at these jails. It diverts resources

from our local budgets to separate

families and disappear people with no

due process. We pray for family

reunification and justice for all

immigrants. Together, we affirm that

justice, compassion, and the rule of

law must apply to everyone—

regardless of immigration status.

Mass deportation policies don’t just

tear families apart; they set a

dangerous precedent that threatens

the constitutional rights of all

Americans. When due process is

denied to one group, the foundation of

democracy itself is weakened. By

coming together in public prayer,

witness, and solidarity, we send a clear

message: Our communities believe in

fairness, dignity, and accountability.

This is a peaceful, family-friendly

event featuring interfaith clergy,

moments of reflection, and

opportunities to take action.

And please bring a donation to help

our neighbors in need: maseca (masa

flour), corn husks, rice (1 lb bag),

vegetable oil, corn tostadas, dried

lentils (1 lb bag), dried red beans (1 lb

bag), and pickled/canned jalapeños.

Monetary donations are the most

direct and helpful support because

they allow flexibility in meeting urgent

needs and providing fresh foods.

You may donate here.

Sunday – October 18 – 5:00 to 6:00 pm

THE VOTE IS SACRED TOUR CLEARWATER

The Vote Is Sacred 2026 is Interfaith

Alliance’s nationwide effort to protect

our democracy and empower people of

faith to get out the vote in the midterm

elections. At the heart of The Vote Is

Sacred is a cross-country bus tour,

launching October 6 in Omaha and

running through Election Day: a

month on the road in the communities

where the freedom to vote is under the

most pressure, with public gatherings

that platform local clergy and faith

communities, election protection

trainings, voter registration and

canvassing anchored at the bus, and

vigils standing against fear and

intimidation at the ballot box. We

partner with local organizations

at every stop.

We will be part of the weekly Vigil for

Immigrant Justice and the Call to End

Section 287(g) of the Immigration and

Nationality Act, which authorizes U.S.

Immigration and Customs

Enforcement (ICE) to delegate federal

immigration enforcement authority to

state and local law enforcement

agencies. This is a time to reflect on

what it means to stand witness and

hold vigil as an act of participatory

democracy. Calling for systemic

change and an end to immigrant

detention without due process, this

vigil has taken place 50 weeks in a

row, organized by faith leaders and

people of conscience, standing in

solidarity with other vigils

across the state and nation.

This vigil is held in partnership with

Interfaith Alliance of Florida, Voter

Action Pinellas, the League of Women

Voters of St. Petersburg, and the

League of Women Voters

of North Pinellas.

Join us, because the vote is sacred,

and democracy needs people of faith.

Sundays – October 18 thru November 1

5:30 to 7:00 pm and 6:00 to 7:30 pm

LET’S TURN AMERICA BLUE

AND FLORIDA PURPLE!

The possibility of a blue (or at least

purple) Florida is not as much an

impossibility as you might think. To

get there, we need a Democratic

trifecta in DC that finally passes

campaign reform. Campaign reform

that includes a mandate for district

maps drawn by independent

committees (not DeSantis or anyone

like him). Fair maps would give us a

fighting chance here in Florida every

two years. Not just

when there’s a blue wave.

Ben Wikler is a former Wisconsin

Democratic State Party Chair. He’s

given much of the credit for

Wisconsin’s political turnaround, and

he’s just written a book “This is the

Plan – How to End America’s

Meltdown and Save Democracy” that

has a lot of great ideas for taking

that turnaround national.

The plan is to get strategic about how

we spend at least a part of our

campaign donations and volunteer

time. Instead of collectively spending

millions of dollars and hundreds or

thousands of hours on virtual

phonebanking for pie-in-the-sky glitzy

campaigns that go viral on social

media, we could support some of the

many close campaigns that are already

within a hair of flipping red seats blue.

There are always some (and

sometimes many) of them out there,

usually starving for donations and

volunteers. Supporting these

campaigns is our best route to get to

that DC Democratic trifecta, campaign

reform, and the beginning of the end

of our political nightmare here in Florida.

This new project, A Plan to Turn

America Blue (and Florida at least

Purple), takes those ideas and makes

it as easy as possible for the rest of us

to implement them. Sign up for the

project and you will receive emails,

each one featuring at least one race

where you can make this kind of

difference. They will explain why that

race is so important and so winnable.

And they will have links to the

candidate’s website, articles and

videos about them, their ActBlue

account, sites where you can volunteer

to phonebank for them, and whatever

else I can find to help you, as an

individual, make the decision as to

whether or not and how you want to

support that race. Whether or not you

want to send them a few bucks or

spend an hour or two

calling voters in their district.

This is a long-term battle to be fought

here and long distance in swing

districts around the country. Whatever

the outcome of this midterm election

we will work to improve it in two years

and two years after that and on the

many races that occur in between

those. We do not stop because we can

never again assume our government

can continue on autopilot with little to

no attention from us. Because now

we know what comes of that.

Sign up here and you can help

turn America Blue and

Florida at least Purple.
