Our winning playbook against Trump

America could elect a convicted felon in 2024 if we don't mobilize now [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME}, At Democracy for America, we've cracked the code to beating Trump and his allies: relentless, year-round organizing. While others hit the snooze button in off-year elections, we build, engage, and mobilize the grassroots machine that will safeguard our democracy. And let me tell you, this approach works. In our last message, we told you about our work in 2018, 2020, and 2022. Today let’s focus on the election in the years in between -- because it’s our non-stop year around strategy of engagement and mobilization that works. In 2017, we helped drive wave elections in critical races, including electing Democrat Doug Jones in deep-red Alabama, flipping the Washington State Senate to Democratic control, and securing Democratic control of the PA Supreme Court. We didn't stop there. In 2019, our multi-year, multi-million dollar Purple to Blue campaign helped flip both houses of the Virginia General Assembly, giving Democrats control for the first time in 20 years. This victory opened the door for crucial progressive legislation in the state. Now, we're facing our biggest challenge yet and that’s why we’ve been organizing since 2023. A former president, a convicted felon, is trying to claw his way back to power and if Donald Trump wins American democracy could come to an end. As scary as that is, it’s not hyperbole. But here's the thing – we've beaten Trump before, and we'll do it again. [Let's show Trump that democracy doesn't sleep – and neither do we.

It's about every day between now and November 2024. It's about recruiting, engaging and mobilizing voters -- on the ground, on the phone, and online -- to get out the vote and drive victories nationwide. It's about building relationships in communities long before candidates announce their runs. It's about having conversations with neighbors about the issues that matter most. It's about empowering local leaders to mobilize their own networks. We're talking about a grassroots revolution that starts in living rooms and community centers across America. We're creating a movement that's resilient to the ebb and flow of news cycles, a force that grows stronger with every conversation, every door knocked, every text sent. This approach isn't flashy. It doesn't grab headlines. But it's how we've won time and time again. It's how we flipped Virginia blue, how we sent the Squad to Washington, and how we turned Georgia from a Republican stronghold into a battleground state. But here's the truth -- we can't do it without you. Our year-round organizing isn't fueled by big corporate donors or dark money PACs. It's powered by grassroots supporters like you.
