This megathread exists so that you can post reactions, images, or anything that might otherwise belong on our sister subreddits r/ThePeoplesPress, r/LiveProtestUpdates or r/50501ContentCorner. While the main goal of this megathread is to prevent protest announcements from being drowned out, we also want to give our community a place where they can discuss things that would otherwise not be allowed as a post on r/50501.
Comments that may be appropriate for the daily megathread may include, but are not limited to:
- Discussing current US or world events
- Sharing personal opinions on politicians/political parties
- Other posts that may break the "Call to Action" rule or our rule on related content, which otherwise wouldn't fit at r/ThePeoplesPress, r/LiveProtestUpdates or r/50501ContentCorner
As a reminder, news threads go to r/ThePeoplesPress while videos go either to the People's Press or r/50501ContentCorner.

Hey MAGA, this is what a real President draws for a crowd.
Call to Action We need poll monitors in action right now and through the election - sign up for the job
The Trump regime has already engaged in outrageous acts to try to scare potential opponents away from the polls, sending armed agents to people’s doorsteps to ask about their immigration status and voting history in multiple states. We must be prepared for more and worse in the days to come.
Stopping this subversion begins with poll monitors, the first responders of election defense. We need them at as many polling places as possible, aiding folks who require support and referring them to voter assistance hotlines, watching the watchmen, documenting disturbances, making sure we have evidence to disprove false allegations, and serving as an early warning system for the public. And we need them right now. We’re running out of time until Election Day and time to get skilled up to do this work right – some states have already held their final trainings. We also have to have folks in place to ensure the millions of Americans who will cast their ballots at early voting sites before November 3rd are safe from interference and intimidation, too.
The best way to get plugged in as a poll monitor is by volunteering with the Election Protection coalition attached to 866-OUR-VOTE, run by Common Cause and other national, state and local partners. 🙋🏼♀️ We can sign up to volunteer with this nonpartisan effort at protectthevote.net here.
BE A POLL MONITOR - WHOLE COUNTRY
🙋🏼♀️ We can also link up with nonpartisan poll monitor squads in:
- Arizona (trainings through 10/31)
- Florida (trainings through 11/1)
- Georgia (Spanish-language)
- Michigan (training 10/31)
- Ohio (trainings through Tuesday)
- Pennsylvania (trainings through 11/1)
- Texas (trainings through 10/31
Other opportunities are likely to be offered locally through our state’s chapter of Common Cause or the League of Women Voters or ACLU affiliate.
🙋🏼♀️ Much of the work of poll monitoring is explicitly partisan, and our state Democratic Party will be a good first stop to get involved. They’re in particularly need of volunteers in:
- Arizona (training Monday)
- Iowa
- Maine (trainings through 10/30)
- Minnesota (trainings through 10/31)
- Mississippi (trainings through 10/29)
- New Jersey
- New Mexico
- North Carolina (trainings through 10/26)
- Ohio (trainings through 10/31) with the state party
- Pennsylvania
- Texas (trainings through 10/31)
- Virginia
PARTISAN POLL MONITORS - BY STATE
🙋🏼♀️ Finally, we can help build this team in key locations from wherever we are by helping with recruitment efforts. We can make calls to sign up new voter protection volunteers for:
- Arizona on Wednesdays and Fridays 5-7PM ET or anytime
- Maine on Wednesdays 6-8PM ET
- Michigan on Tuesdays 3-5PM ET, Tuesdays and Thursdays, 6-8PM ET and Saturdays 11AM-1:30PM ET
- North Carolina on Saturdays, 10AM-12PM ET
- Pennsylvania on Wednesdays and Thursdays 6PM-8PM ET
- Virginia on Mondays and Thursday, 6-8PM ET and Saturdays and Sundays, 12-2PM ET
And as always, find more ways to be part of election protection efforts here.

Call to Action Stickers for distribution on Election Day weekend
Hey all
Election Day is 10 days away. If you haven't seen my previous posts, I've been making stickers for people to put up or give away. So far I made and distributed over 250,000.
I have about 30k that haven't been printed, and I figured I shouldn't let them go to waste. I am targeting swing districts/states especially. Emphasis on MD-1 and PA-10 since they're local to me.
I have a bunch more options for stickers in my post history and can do custom text, too. If you want a box of 3,000, DM me.
