Hopium Joins With The State Parties To Launch The New Project To Help Protect Our Elections And Ensure A Peaceful Transfer Of Power
This passage from an August 13th post and video…….
Trump And The Rs Are Going To Do Whatever It Takes To Remain In Power - With the venal Blanche at the helm and corrupt oligarchical cash flowing into their campaign conifers we must expect Trump and the Rs to do whatever It takes to stay in power in these final 82 days and through the transfer of power in January. Whatever it takes. Thus, we must be prepared and not once again by surprised by their ambitious fuckery that has already brought us open collaboration with Russia to win one election and an attempt in 2021 to violently overturn another.
In that regard yesterday here in Austin ASDC President Jane Kleeb and I announced a new three part program to give the state parties more tools to protect our elections and ensure a peaceful transfer of power in 2027. Hopium members should see this new program as extension of the huge investments we’ve made in building strong state parties over the last three years.
We are tentatively calling it the “New Battlefield Project” - as in winning in a changing and evolving battlefield of oligarchs, AI, foreign adversaries and a venal, desperate Trump - and it has three parts:
Enhanced Election Protection - we will ensure that for the first time ever every state and territory has a full time, qualified Election Protection Director; we will also be launching a nationwide training program to help train volunteers to support their state parties in protecting the elections this fall.
A National Early Vote Campaign - Pushing our family to vote early makes it more likely we win and harder for them to cheat. This is something we’ve been promoting here for some time, and it is a vital, vital effort to help us win.
A War Room - we will ensuring that the states and territories are tied to one another and to all the national party committees in real time. So if something illicit happens anywhere it can be understood immediately everywhere. We will be also be bringing on national security professionals to help advise the states if things arise that require their expertise.
Jane and I have raised $500,000 to get this important project off the ground. Staff are being hired. She and I briefed the states and territories yesterday and the response was very positive. So things are moving forward. I will be sharing details about this new program in the coming days but there will be opportunities for all Hopium community members to participate in the election protection trainings and state party led election protection efforts, and in promoting the importance of early voting to your networks and communities.
This is exciting stuff, and it is only happening because of the grit and generous of the proud, plucky patriots of this remarkable community.
