With all the energy, organizing, and get out the vote efforts we decided to send out another newsletter!! We know we are all doing our part to organize against some of the really spooky things out there! That said we hope you take care of yourself and find enjoyable moments this Halloween and last push towards election day!
Remember we have our 2024 voter guide as pinned Instagram posts here: https://www.instagram.com/coloradoyoungdemocrats/p/DA_bXntOPAk/?hl=en&img_index=1 If you have friends or family overwhelmed about the ballot you can tell them they don't need to do it all. Some people don't know they can just vote for some issues and candidates. If they want help with more though they can look towards a trusted organization like us for what they have to say!
