Thank you for suggesting that we support ______________ with postcards to voters in [his/her/their] district! We’d like to learn more about this candidate.
Postcards4WA is especially interested in supporting progressive candidates who:
----Have the potential to take a seat away from a conservative incumbent OR are a progressive incumbent in a close race against a conservative challenger
----Are running against an opponent who has problematic affiliations (such as QAnon, 3 Percent, etc.)
----Are Black, Indigenous, people of color, or a member of any group that may face disproportionate barriers in running for office
----Are running in races located within Congressional District 8 (Rep. Schrier’s district)
----Are likely running in close races (estimated to be within about 5% of their nearest opponent).
Could you let us know:
----Which criteria (listed above) does this candidate meet?
----What county is this race in?
----What other information will be of interest to volunteer writers about this candidate or this race?
----Where can we find out more about this candidate? (Website, social media, etc.)
----What is this candidate’s email address and phone number?
Thank you for helping us keep Washington BLUE!
