The best people to focus on right now are the people who just don’t think their vote matters, who think their vote doesn’t count. Who don’t feel like they know enough to vote the whole ballot. The people who are so busy with day to day lives that they can’t imagine getting out to vote.

It’s not voter apathy, as @staceyabrams says, it’s voter despair, voter disregard, and voter suppression.

Voters under 40 have an under 5% turnout rate so far, compared to >18% for the over 40 crowd, with most of those being over the age of 65.

If we want to change things, we have to make our voices heard!!!

18 days until election day.

I’m going to hold on to this sticker I think.

If you haven’t, please make a plan to vote.

Early voting means you don’t have to wait in line and we stop bothering you.

If you believe in North Carolina the way I believe in North Carolina then we are going to make some really special things happen together.

📈 We are picking up momentum, about to break 3,000! We know WE are the best messengers for our friends, family, coworkers, neighbors and fellow parents at our children's schools. So we will keep having conversations with folks in our networks THRU ELECTION DAY.

Join us 10/20 to finish strong! https://dhnc.info/LAST EmergencyMeeting

🗳 18 days to Election Day!

Picking up momentum, About to break 3,000!

If each pledge signer recruits 4 others to vote NO - we will EXCEED our goal!

NCFPS teams and leaders did this by reaching their own networks, asking other people to reach their networks, talking to people at community events, and holding house parties and school meetings.

💪 YOU can also do more than just vote no. Join us so we can break 3,000 and keep moving towards our 10,000 pledge goal!

1) Sign the pledge: https://dhnc.info/NCFPS-Pledge

2) Ask 10 friends to sign

3) Take action with us: https://dhnc.info/NC-FPS

(all links in bio)

🤩 By 11/3, Election Day, NCFPS teams will collect 10,000 pledges AGAINST the Amendments and FOR our Platform.

🙌 This number could help defeat the Amendments AND will matter to legislators when we fight for our platform priorities in the 2027 legislative session.

🤝 Join us to build power and organize your community! by @publicedtay
