Newsletter: The Road Through Chaos
There's light at the end of this partisan tunnel. Let's find it together.
This past weekend, the former President of the United States was nearly assassinated.
Instead of jarring awake the American electorate and heeding the wakeup call, the national conversation has already continued on, apparently accepting political violence as a new normal in this endlessly vitriolic, hateful cultural moment.
It might not seem like it, but there's a road through this chaos.
Let's talk about it.
LetUsVote Newsletter: The road through chaos.
Our country is hurting, and voices are screaming, loudly. But those partisan voices bent on dividing us are just a small few. More than half of all Americans are like us: they consider themselves politically independent. Trump and Biden together are the most disliked major party candidates in three decades.
In every way Americans can say they're over this hateful, two party mess, they say it. The problem is this: independent Americans like you and me don't think we have the power to change it.
But we do.
And that's the path forward: you. Us.
Independent voters like you and me are often barred from voting in crucial primary elections. These are the elections that define which candidates make the ballot in the first place. When people are shut out from primary elections, we're left with choices no one wants, like Biden v. Trump.
This year, campaigns in seven states are working to change their primary laws:
- Arizona
- Colorado
- Idaho
- Montana
- Nevada
- South Dakota
- Washington DC
If those campaigns win? Millions of voters have access to their constitutional right to vote. Millions more voters are heard. Now more than ever, that matters.
But they need help to get this done. They need support from the LetUsVote community. Every minute of free time you have is exceptionally valuable, and can help us through this chaos.
Want to see a change? Let's make it happen. Volunteer today to support independent voters like you and me:
Volunteer Today: Support Independent Voters
After you add your name, I'll shoot you an email to find a time to chat and help connect you with the campaign you'd like to support.
It's time for independent voters to rally together and say enough is enough. It's time to protect our future. It's time to fight back against hyperpartisan, raging nonsense. It's time to give ourselves real choices in November and any voice at all in primary elections.
Let's get it done.
Thank you.
If you support what we're doing here at LetUsVote, please know that any contribution - big or small - helps us keep up the work of building a unique and totally new community for independent voters. It would mean the world if you can contribute.
Thank you for all you do.
Sincerely,
Campaign Director - LetUsVote
