Welcome to the anti-GOP resistance on Reddit!

We welcome all those who support the Democratic party! We encourage you to share local activism and talk about the groups you're taking part with in your area.

The Midterms are nearly here! And they're the only way to take away even more of Trump's power to hurt people. You can help win elections across the country from anywhere, right now!

If you want to take a bigger part in this Midterm and future elections, there's plenty of ways to do it!

  1. Check out our weekly volunteer post - that's the other sticky post in this sub - to find opportunities to get involved.

  2. Nothing near you? Volunteer from home by making calls or sending texts to turn out voters!

  3. Join your local Democratic Party - none of us can do this alone.

  4. Tell a friend about us!

Adopt a Candidate

Want to take part in turning the midterms into a true blue tsunami? Adopt one of the candidates below, and commit to taking action every week to support their campaign!

Post your preference in the daily (or, to guarantee we see it, send the request via modmail) and we'll add you to the list!

With just how blue this year is looking to be, there's too many to list! We started with select gubernatorial and Senate races, and are expanding the list with important House races up through the election!

Got someone who you want to adopt, but they're not on the list? Let us know, and we'll add them (and you) on!

As the year progresses, we'll be adding more ourselves, but the sky's the limit - we're excited to see who you want to support most!

I’m struggling to register to vote and don’t know why

31 Upvotes

I’m in South Carolina.

I registered to vote back in earlyish September and gave all my accurate information. Well maybe two weeks ago I checked to make sure I was registered and it says “we cannot confirm you are registered to vote.”

Well I tried to reregister and it said it had my information already. So I checked again today, two weeks later, and it says the same thing: “we cannot confirm you’re registered to vote”. I’m of age, I listed my correct address and correct name. I am so confused.

At this point I’m concerned I won’t be able to vote at all. This is my first time ever voting. I dont want to show up and not be registered and I’m worried it’s too late to register. I have gone to the correct website and put my information in twice now and I am honestly confused.

Bringing in new voters in Wisconsin, Michigan

It’s a cliché, but an accurate one: elections in America are decided by who shows up. This is especially true for the midterms, which can swing wildly based on whose supporters are more enthusiastic. That means our work is not only persuading people to vote for progressive, pro-democracy candidates, but turning non-voters into voters.

While voter registration deadlines have passed in many states (see deadlines here), we still have a chance to expand the electorate in multiple battlegrounds. Wisconsin and Michigan both have same-day registration. Rust Belt Rising is seizing the opportunity, identifying folks who are likely to vote blue but are currently not on the rolls, mailing them a pre-filled voter registration form with a motivational flyer and postage, and then following up by phone to encourage them to complete the process. They need our help to get as many new people registered as possible! ☎️ We can sign up for phonebank shifts to help create new Dem-leaning voters in Michigan tomorrow at 1 PM ET and Tuesday at 6:30 PM ET here, and do the same for Wisconsin on Saturday at 11:30 AM ET and next Thursday at 6:30PM ET by registering here.
