Hello, and thank you for reading the Indivisible Bangor newsletter.
There are a LOT of canvassing opportunities this weekend in Bangor, Orono, and Old Town!
But first, I want to mention that we have a new Elections and Voting Resources page that has updated information on your canvassing opportunities for the state-wide offices as well for local offices. It also lists current voting information.
With all the money Elon Musk is gifting Susan Collins and Paul LePage for their campaigns (you have to wonder why Elon wants them in Congress…), talking to voters face-to-face is the best way to earn their support for Democrats up and down the ticket, combat the Elon propaganda, and to really sock it to Collins and LePage!
Check here to go to https://indivisiblebangor.org/voting-resources/. You’ll be glad you did!
And now, this weekend’s action!
