1.
It will embarrass the GOP, nationwide. Imagine if our party ran ads on social media(youtube etc), TV, and radio that condemn the Republican Party's efforts to threaten your right to vote.
Regarding the GOP's anti-voting efforts..
This is a fascist, authoritarian power grab. In every way, Republicans are willfully attempting to undermine your right to vote.
Say that in your ads. Expose them for the authoritarian power-mongers that they are.
They are the anti-freedom party. Their attempts to limit democracy are a blatant example of modern day fascism.
Expose the GOP's power grab. Take your case to the people.
U.S. citizens don't really like power-grabbing politicians. Embarrassing the GOP can bring a ton of swing-voter support our way and engage Dem voters to turn out and vote by lighting a fire under their asses to do so.
If someone told me I can't vote, I'd run through a fucking brick wall to try prove them wrong.

Challenging voters will engage them. Speak the truth. The GOP is trying to take your right to vote away.
Are you going to allow Republicans to prevent you from voting?
Voters will turn out if challenged.
..........................................................................
Democrats, take the gloves off and swing back. Nail their party to the wall by exposing them for what they are.
In your ads,
call them authoritarian
call them Fascist
call them power-mongering
Ask voters nationally,
Are you going to allow the Fascist Republican Party to prevent you from voting?
Expose the GOP as the national embarrassment that they are.

(2,636 posts)I like to engage, politely point out the whataboutery, provide facts to call out their bullshit, and let them block me.
Then I look at their past tweets, and report them if they even hint about Jan 6, or otherwise take violent positions.
At least it slows them down.
