CALLING ALL VOTERS IN SAN DIEGO!
The general election is coming up fast! ARE YOU READY?
We know that when our community votes, our voices are powerful and can make a real impact in our everyday lives. This is our moment to take action and vote for the future of our communities. This election season, you will be making decisions on important measures at the local and state levels that affect us and our families directly, including decisions on issues like: minimum wage, affordable housing, just policing, marriage equality and infrastructure for climate change. On top of all of the statewide and local measures on the ballot, voters will have an opportunity to choose who will lead our city, county, and country on these issues.
VOTE with dignity by voting up the ballot, starting on or before November 5, 2024. Our lives are literally at stake. We are not here to tell you who to vote for, we are however invested in our communities and the only way that positive change happens on election day is by our community joining together to vote up the ballot, starting with the issues that are here at home, directly impacting us and our loved ones.
