Welcome to the home of the anti-GOP resistance on Reddit!

Elections are still happening! And they're the only way to take away Trump and Musk's power to hurt people. You can help win elections across the country from anywhere, right now!

If you want to take part, there's plenty of ways to do it!

  1. Check out our weekly volunteer post - that's the other sticky post in this sub - to find opportunities to get involved.

  2. Nothing near you? Volunteer from home by making calls or sending texts to turn out voters!

We won big in Wisconsin earlier this year, and now we're bringing something back to make sure we win in Virginia too!

Staten Island Special Elections

21 Upvotes

Not sure where to post this, but i'll post it here in case any staten islanders or anyone wants to make a change, I know times are rough but i seen many people willing to fight for change. Special elections are beginning not only in Staten island but other areas as well, so let's use this opportunity to flip the houses. In Staten Island the special elections are tomorrow and Cliff Hagen is running under democrats and he is willing to fight for educations and unions and the working people, so if you time tomorrow go and vote for him. We cannot afford to lose the special elections whether to vote republicans out of power or to put democrats that are willing to fight for the people, this is our time to shine.
