VOTE-BY-MAIL

PHONEBANKING FROM HOME

English | Español

Florida’s vote-by-mail rules have

changed. As of January 1, 2025 over

1.2 million Florida Democrats (and

over 95,000 in Pinellas!) were no

longer signed up to get a mail ballot in

2026. These are some of our most

reliable voters – and unless we reach

them, many could be left behind. Your

quick, helpful conversations

will make a real difference.

Whether you are brand NEW to

calling voters or you are

EXPERIENCED and it’s been a while

since you made calls, we want to

provide you with support, the

latest information, and some fun too! 

Train in person on Sunday.

Then once you are

ready to go, you can make calls

whenever it works for you from the

comfort of your home.

PROTECT ELECTIONS

DEMAND DEMOCRACY

PART 2: MAKING A PLAN

The threat to the upcoming midterm

elections is of a different magnitude

than most of us have experienced in

our lifetimes. The modern American

authoritarian movement has rapidly

advanced efforts to dismantle

democracy – and subverting elections

is the next step for this authoritarian

movement, if it is to continue

consolidating power. We are

expecting an onslaught of election

sabotage tactics from localized and

national forces, and we need a

movement response. Join us for a

series of trainings that will help your

community not just defend the

elections but grow a proactive,

movement-building response that

demands a more robust democracy

beyond the ballot count. Please Note:

We do not record these trainings. To

keep up to date on upcoming sessions,

MAKE GOOD TROUBLE

SPEAK OUT!

Join Operation Overpass on Friday

morning to participate in a weekend

full of Good Trouble! We are kicking

off the weekend of dissent at the Duke

Energy Overpass! Bring your signs,

flags, and friends!

The fight to protect voting rights never

ends, and right now, we’re witnessing

a Jim-Crow-era effort from politicians

and their billionaire friends to restrict

our freedoms, silence our voices,

and consolidate power.

But in America, we choose our leaders.

We will decide our future. The same

spirit that fueled Selma, Montgomery,

and the March on Washington lives on

in our unified action.

Six years after the passing of

Congressman Lewis, we’re organizing

an event in our community to carry

the torch, continue the legacy of John

Lewis, and pass it forward to

future generations. Join us!

Good Trouble Lives On is a

non-partisan weekend of action.

We require that participants commit

to not advocate for, endorse, or

oppose any political candidate or

ballot initiative. A core principle

behind all Good Trouble Lives On

events is a commitment to nonviolent

action. We expect all participants to

seek to de-escalate any potential

confrontation with those who disagree

with our values and to act lawfully at

these events. Weapons of any kind,

including those legally permitted,

should not be brought to events.
