I am wlorking with a group called Post Cards to Swing States. They supply you with"Get out and Vote" postcards that you hand write a message on, a message that they supply , and the addresses to send the cards to.... a small thing to do, but anything to help...
I would advocate another implementation. In every precinct, a GROUP should begin an effort to secure protection at all voting sites by first sending letters to all lawyers, asking them to volunteer to be present at the voting sites on election day. The most salubrious effect would be one male and one female lawyer on site. Secondly, show up at lawyers' offices and ask them what they think. Lawyers at voting sites would neutralize all bully rednecks and compliment cops who we all know will be there to intimidate voters.
I’m canvassing with the local Democratic Party but it’s so good to know that we are not alone!
Thanks for recommending Seed the Vote. I couldn't think of their name. Just donated.
I wish I could, Jim. I’m still not getting around too well from my severely broken ankle last year.

How about instead, use the lawyers and volunteers to put an initiative for vote by mail on the ballot. Problem solved.
I donated to the League of Conservation Voters and the League of Women Voters
