Thank You for Your Efforts This Election Season!

Defending Democracy has become a full time effort!

It requires more than just your vote! Here are voter engagement activities to spread the truth about the issues and how elected representatives vote versus what they say they support.

Registered to Vote?

If you have had a change of address since the last election – even moving within Rossmoor – you must re-register. This is very important since every voter in California votes by mail, your ballot is mailed to you.

Financially Support Candidates & Organizations

Sometimes giving money is the action you want to take but the requests can be overwhelming. Democrats of Rossmoor recommend you focus on a few key elections and organizations and forget the rest.

Candidates

The more you focus your giving, the more effective your dollar will be. The following are suggestions:

Presidential Campaign  

Give a monthly or weekly amount to the Harris campaign! Regular donations helps the campaign by developing a record of unique small donors for fundraising purposes. A small amount (as low $10) is enough, $46 would be a nice amount.

Donate to Elect Kamala Harris

Congressional Campaigns

Winning the Congress runs through California! Democrats of Rossmoor suggests supporting the Democrats who are most likely to flip the District they are running in.

Organizations

Give to organizations you know about or have worked with or whose values you support. Forget the rest!
