ActBlue is a nonprofit organization that builds tools Democrats count on to run their own small-dollar fundraising programs.

A caveat about ActBlue, thanks to DFW:
"There are plenty of donors (like me) who do not go through Act Blue, but rather send checks. Ergo, the true amount actually donated will be higher. Keep in mind, though, that $151 million donated through Act Blue means Act Blue keeps $6 million and the credit card companies keep another $4 million to $6 million. With checks, the candidates keep 100% of the funds donated. It may be old fashioned, but in tight races where every cent of the campaign budgets count, that margin could matter."
"Not all of our candidates will win. A losing candidate with no personal fortune is still responsible for debts incurred during the campaign. I doubt Act Blue or Mastercard will be stepping in, offering to help out."

Postcards to Swing States needs your help!
Research proves that writing postcards will add more than 130,000 votes, which is three times the number that decided the outcome of the 2020 election in favor of President Biden. Help if you can! Spread the word!

FLIP NC --
North Carolina Democrats created FLIP NC, an all-volunteer grassroots organization, to focus on winning competitive seats in the legislature and courts, with the goal of ending gerrymandering. After the North Carolina Supreme Court upheld Republican lawmakers' gerrymandered maps, FLIP NC has aimed to flip the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals to ensure fair maps in 2030. The organization is aligned with the state Democratic Party's efforts to focus on judicial races and is planning to host canvass sessions in Asheville, Raleigh, and Wendell. FLIP NC aims to convince North Carolinians to fill out the entire ballot, not just the top of the ticket.

Thanks to TurboDem for this tidbit:
Two of the justices who voted for the 1864 abortion law are up for re-election in Arizona.

To quote new DUer Climate Crusader,
"When we work, we win. Get out the Vote efforts. Volunteer to make calls, give rides to the polls, get friends and family out, become a poll watcher.
When you vote we get a vote, but when you volunteer, you multiply that vote!!!
Biden/Harris 2024!!!"

It might not necessarily be pinned because I re-post updates very frequently, and every day when Election Day looms near.
On edit:
But do kick these up often, because such posts aren't as "sexy" as others and tend to sink quickly.
