Seniors Taking Action
Post-Carding Toolkit
Writing postcards is a snap. Seniors Taking Action will help YOU and your friends work to elect Democrats at the local, state, and federal levels. You’ll be given lists of names and addresses of Democratic voters in key races around the country, and you’ll be told exactly what to say. All you’ll have to do is write legibly and supply postcards and stamps.
1. Gather 3-4 friends around your kitchen table, in a coffee shop, or any place you find comfortable to talk and work.
2. Get to work! Write postcards to voters encouraging them to vote for Democratic candidates. It is really simple – just follow these steps!
a. Start by sending an email to [email protected], with your subject “Postcard Address Request.” In the message write, “I want to write postcards to send to Democrats.”
b. Tony will respond with a few guidelines. Reply to his email with a picture of a practice postcard (he is checking your legibility). He’ll then send you lists of names and addresses and a script.
c. You can buy “Vote” postcards and stamps at Amazon.com.
Do you have any questions or comments? We would like to hear from you. Please contact us at [email protected] for help, send us advice, or send us your friends to add to our group! The future of our democracy is up to us!
NOW, GET TO WORK ELECTING DEMOCRATS!
