Friends Help Friends Vote: The Playbook Democrats Used to Win Georgia | Jenny Beth Martin

Friends Help Friends Vote: the texting playbook Democrats used to flip Georgia is now in your phone. Election Day is 14 days out. Start today.

Friends Help Friends Vote is the friends-and-family turnout program Jon Ossoff's campaign used to win the 2021 Georgia Senate runoffs, and the same method is now yours. In this solo training episode, Jenny Beth Martin starts with the news and then spends the rest of the hour walking you through two tools on the phone in your hand, step by step, two weeks before Election Day.

First the news. The Justice Department charged 28 green card holders in California with federal election crimes and arrested 11 of them, after a citizenship check flagged about 20,000 suspected noncitizens on the state's voter rolls with ballots already mailed. 60 Minutes called the numbers tiny; Ballotpedia counts 94 American elections since 2018 decided by a single vote. Then the Social Security Administration's biggest records cleanup in 91 years, Senator Elissa Slotkin's promise of "signature cases" against people who served in the Trump administration, and the riots in France.

Then the training. Tool one is TPP.me/text, for texting voters you do not know. Tool two is Friends Help Friends Vote, the relational organizing program of Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund: download the Numinar app, join the workspace, let it match your contacts against the voter file, and have real conversations with the people who already trust you.

Host: Jenny Beth Martin, co-founder of the Tea Party movement and Chairman of Tea Party Patriots Action. No guests this episode.

Key talking points:
• 28 green card holders charged in California, 11 arrested, at least 8 accused of voting more than once
• About 20,000 suspected noncitizens on California's rolls, and why the SAVE America Act checks citizenship at registration
• Ballotpedia: 660 races decided by 10 votes or fewer since 2018, 94 by one vote
• How Ossoff's campaign hired about 2,800 Georgians to reach their own friends and family and lifted turnout nearly 4 points
• The 287,000-voter experiment: a concrete plan to vote raised turnout about 4 points
• The wet sponge: where the last votes in a close race come from
• Numinar setup, contact matching, what to text your dad, and what to do when a friend is voting the other way

Everything you need is at friendshelpfriendsvote.com. Ten minutes a day until Tuesday, November 3.
