Registering Protestors Virtually
Necessity is the mother of invention. And right now, we need to make sure every single protester is registered to vote, yet COVID has made in-person voter registration impossible to do safely, especially in giant crowds. So we’ve become even more inventive. This week we began using mobile geofencing to virtually be at the protests! What this means is that we designate an area around the major protests in our swing states. And then for anyone who has been at the protests in Tallahassee, FL, or Raleigh, NC, or Detroit, MI, or Houston, TX, the next time they get on Facebook (or Google, going forward) they see an ad saying something like, “The first step in voting out racists is registering to vote!” One click leads them straight to our voter registration link. We don’t give up. We find good-hearted people, and turn their voices into votes. Whatever it takes. And November third, we will be heard.
Down to the River
Judson Crane and and Christian Pulfer of Founder Music have made a special arrangement of “Down to the River to Pray” to stand in protest against racism and injustice toward the Black community. Watch the video on YouTube HERE or below and download the music for free HERE . Donation proceeds go directly to BlackLivesMatter .

2020 Strategy Briefing Call
Our first 2020 Strategy Briefing Call was a roaring success, with 620 volunteers and organizers attending, and even more via live-streaming. FT6 Founder Jason Berlin laid out exactly how we plan to register 100k Democrats by November and change election.
