250,000 Postcards.
250,000 Voters.
The Mission
Work with Field Team 6 to write to non-registered, progressive-leaning people in swing states. influence them to register as Democrats and vote in the November 3rd Midterm Elections.
Our Goal
Write to 250,000 people in swing states before October 24, 2026.
Why?
This administration is not focused on helping the American people. They are solely focused on helping themselves, corporations, and billionaires get more power and wealth. Their actions are hurting Americans, including previously Independent and Republican voters, who are now more receptive to voting for Democrats than they have been in the last 8 years!
Our goal is to help this conversion process. 60% of unregistered voters have never been asked to register!
The 2026 United States midterm elections will be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
This November, all 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the U.S. Senate will be on the ballot, along with elections for 39 state and territorial governors, attorney generals, and other state and local offices.

From Field Team 6:
We register Democrats because those are the voters who will literally save our democracy.
Because we do partisan voter registration, we can also talk about what Democrats stand for, and we can mention specific candidates, helping with name recognition. This means our activism is doubly effective – we canvass while we register.
-
Yes! Vote Forward requires non-partisan messaging. Check back to see if we launch a non-partisan campaign as well.
