She Should Run

At She Should Run, we’re all excited about exercising our right to vote this year. But the big question we’ve been asking ourselves is, how can we continue our civic engagement beyond voting? Introducing… VOTE, AND! VOTE, AND is a campaign that will help you connect your everyday actions to your political power and get civically engaged beyond voting. We’ve included tons of tools like a ballot evaluator, a guide to absentee voting, and information on how you can practice your civic duty, plus tips and activities to help you bring your community along for the ride. The keystone feature? A pledge to take 5 minutes to consider running for office yourself! When you’re ready to unwind from all of that civic engagement, we have fun crafts to do with your family, a playlist to jam to, and even a custom cocktail recipe to share! Explore VOTE, AND now: https://lnkd.in/esX99hQS VOTE, AND has been made possible with support from AstraZeneca US, Talk To Jess (Jess Weiner), and MAKERS Women.
