What’s a MoveOn Election Party? Save Democracy and Meet New People.

It’s hard to see things happen in the world and feel like you don’t know what to do or how to help. 

If you’ve been worried by things like Project 2025, SCOTUS’s corruption, and Trump’s convictions, then you’re not alone, and there are ways you can help save our democracy. 

Meet like-minded people and contribute to a good cause by joining an election party! 

MoveOn members will be hosting election parties now through November 5, 2024, all across the U.S. and virtually. 

Our MoveOn members have turned up all over the country to help fight for democracy, defend abortion rights at the ballot box, stand up against MAGA attacks on LGBTQ+ communities, and do so much more—and you can too.

What are election parties?

Election parties are when a group of people get together to call voters, write postcards to voters or canvass in battleground states.

MoveOn members can host or attend parties in their area or virtually. A party can be at someone’s home, a coffee shop, or even a park. It’s really just a group of people getting together to help get the word out about voting. 

Hosts get sent all the necessary items to host an event and are given trainings on how to run a phone bank, a postcard party, or canvass. They’re also sent resources to help attendees personalize their messages to voters.

Kathie, a MoveOn member who has been involved in multiple ways over the years, emphasizes how important getting involved is: 

“This year felt different. The thought of Donald Trump winning the presidency, particularly after instigating the violence on January 6, was just too much. So I decided that I wanted to be part of defeating him again, hopefully for the last time.” 

MoveOn members will come together at parties across the country to fight for abortion, health care, the climate, democracy, and economic justice. 

MoveOn supports you every step of your journey, whether you’re hosting or attending a party this summer.

As Kathie says…

Hosting has been fun. And MoveOn’s support has truly been phenomenal—from getting materials to me on time to coaching me through challenges. But it’s also been really empowering because it’s given me a way to do something about the dire situation our country is in, and to create a space for our friends and neighbors to come together around shared values—to be part of something bigger.”

If you want to get involved while being outside enjoying the weather, you could also sign up to canvass. 

Get the vote out this November by meeting voters at their doors. Join MoveOn staffers this summer in key swing states to make a big impact. You’ll meet up with fellow Democratic heroes and talk to real voters who can help save democracy. 

MoveOn will give you all the information you need to be a pro canvasser, like where to meet, what to say, and how to collect voter data. After you get a short training, you and your fellow canvassers will head out to meet with voters and make an impact. 

MoveOn member Jamie said she was compelled to go out and canvass because “democracy is on the ballot, and we have to.”
