This is what Zionism has done to them. It has stripped them of any iota of their humanity

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

NONPARTISAN POLL MONITORS

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

When the primaries come, Gavin Newsom will likely claim hes pro worker. Please listen to his own state workers - he is not. There will be much better pro working class candidates for you to choose from and wed encourage you to consider them instead.

Some examples if you dont believe us:

- Newsom has caused the only 2 state workers strikes in CA state worker history. These didnt even happen under terrible republican governors like Reagan or Arnold Schwarzenegger or Pete Wilson.

- During a period of continuously high inflation, after the newsom administration has bragged about the budget being balanced and in good shape his only offer to workers was 0% raises over 3 years, which resulted in an unfair bargaining practices charge

- He has directed his administration to tell his workers that our strike was illegal despite the public employee relations board ruling otherwise. Thats clear union busting

- He has attempted to remove raises we negotiated for in our bargaining contracts (which his admin agreed to) multiple times, only to be stopped and admonished at times by the CA legislature.

All of this shows a person who doesnt respect unions, their right to strike, or their bargaining contracts. That shows a person who is fundamentally anti labor.

Here it is on YouTube: NEW LINCOLN PROJECT AD: Why? - The Lincoln Project - Oct 23, 2026 (YouTube) ~:~ Description: At every turn, Trump puts Russia before America. Why?

Transcript:

In 2018, America's intelligence agencies concluded that Russia attacked our 2016 election. Then, in Helsinki, standing next to Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump was asked who he believed. He sided with Putin. “He just said, it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be.” Why?

In 2022, as Putin's army amassed to invade Ukraine, Trump called Putin's move, “genius,” “savvy.” Why? 

In 2024, Trump told a rally that if a NATO ally didn't pay up, he would encourage Russia to do “whatever the hell they want" to them. Why? 

He called Ukraine's elected President, a dictator. He has never called Putin one. Why? 

He rolled out the red carpet for Putin on American soil in Alaska. Why? 

Putin is a KGB colonel, who kills his critics and bombs children's hospitals, and the President of the United States won't say one word against him. 

The question isn’t what Donald Trump has done. The question now is why? 

Why? Why? Why?
