[NFBofAlaska] FW: Mobile Voting Updates

Fri Jun 23 14:42:11 UTC 2023

This would be an excellent thing for anyone interested in making voting accessible to participate. Jocelyn, mentioned in this article, is the person I had been working with before our election period in 2022. She came to our NFB meeting in 2021, I believe it was. 

Hope you all are well! Missing Alaska!

A lot of exciting things have been happening on the Mobile Voting team as we work to increase our grassroots organizing efforts across the nation.

Grassroots Organizing Workshops

We know that in order to expand access to mobile voting for more and more voters, we will need to organize and mobilize volunteers in every state across the country to build support and ultimately win enactment campaigns. We recently hosted our first organizing workshops to begin to give our volunteers the tools to add supporters and volunteers in your local communities. We held our first workshop last month with a focus on storytelling. We are collecting personal stories from our supporters about why they support mobile voting and hope to use those to add more people to this movement.

Be sure to sign up to join our Action Network at  <https://mobilevoting.us20.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b3b29b60af017849d735de594&id=eb182c636e&e=b0635f0582> mobilevoting.org/action. We'll be in touch to schedule a one-on-one meeting to learn more about you and discuss how you can help support this movement.  

Tusk Philanthropies Founder and CEO Bradley Tusk on CNBC

“One of the things I am trying to do out of my foundation Tusk Philanthropies is make it possible to vote in elections on your phones, simply because I think if you could do that safely, that would be the only way to significantly increase primary turnout.”
