Get Out to Vote! by Karen P. Williams

​The 2020 election process is proceeding during this challenging time of pandemic and quarantine.  The country is in crisis and our opportunity to vote for new leadership is in our hands.  Together, we must organize and carefully prepare to Get Out to Vote activities in our communities and select candidates that are going to represent us.  It has been difficult to gather people, hold rallies, get our message out and motivate people to go to the polls in sufficient numbers.  Strategies of success and inclusion are now being developed.
