Join Seattle DSA in a textbank to reach out to voters before the special election deadline! Help us remind voters that permanently affordable social housing is on the February ballot, and that ballot is due February 14! We'll be meeting up in the Real Change office to get together to navigate Spoke, have some food, and text some voters! Feel free to Zoom in if you can't make it in person! Please note that masks will be required for the Real Change office in person!

A wifi-connectable device is necessary to textbank, so please bring a laptop or tablet! No experience necessary and training is provided on site!
