Get involved with Pink Poster Club!
We have several different ways you can join us these next several weeks! Every vote counts, and we want to help make sure we win big.
Relational Organizing
Your influence is strongest towards people you know! It’s important and helpful to text acquaintances, family, and friends ahead of an important election. Have people you know in Wisconsin, Michigan, Texas, and/or Ohio? Fill out our google form below and we will remind you to text them ahead of the election and give you a script to help you figure out what to say!
All the Deets
Sign up via our forms so we can send scripts and reminders directly to you!
Postcard Writing
We’re trying to send out as many postcards as we can to swing states, using the organization Progressive Turnout Project 2026. We’ll be ordering postcards on Monday 09/21, Monday 09/28, and Monday 10/05! If you want postcards to complete at home, just let us know through our google form below and we will have them ready later that week for pickup.
All the Deets
Sign up via our forms so we can get you postcards!
We will also be writing postcards at our October monthly happy hour! Make sure you come join us on October 15 and make sure to follow us on instagram and sign up for our email blasts for any popup events we might do!
CANVASSING!!!! THIS IS WHERE THE MONEY IS MADE!
Canvassing is one of the most helpful and productive ways to get involved this GOTV season.
Canvassing is when you go door to door in a neighborhood to talk with residents about a specific issue or action. You can educate people about an issue affecting your community, you could get people to register to vote, you could discuss your support for a specific candidate and why, etc.
Canvassing is not just about persuading people to get involved—it’s about listening, learning, and building relationships.
Through connecting with others in person, you are raising awareness about an issue while identifying supporters and potential future volunteers. Your goal is to persuade undecided people and encourage civic participation, but you may find that you’re growing your base of supporters at the same time.
All the Deets
Where you’re canvassing: Kenosha, Wisconsin
Dates: Sundays (October 18, 25, and November 1)
Meeting location in Illinois: Hanley for Illinois Office (2916 Central St Unit 2A, Evanston, IL 60201)

Phonebanking
Phone banking is so important!! It cleans lists for campaigns, increases voter turnout at scale, gets important information to different voters, and builds momentum. Read more about it!
We’re partnering with Operation Swing State. Operation Swing State is a volunteer-led grassroots coalition of Illinois Democratic parties, labor unions, progressive advocacy groups, and volunteers working together to make the difference in swing districts in Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Indiana, and Illinois. With great proximity comes great responsibility.

Dates: Wednesdays, in person (September 30, October 7, 14, 21, and 28)

Follow @pink.posterclub on Instagram and sign up for our email blasts to stay informed about upcoming events!
Put magnets and bumper stickers on your car!
Wear your favorite GOTV tshirt, candidate hat, political socks etc to school drop off and pick up.

What about stickers on your water bottle? Or buttons on your daily backpack and purse?
Help us flyer! We hope to flyer several times throughout this election season. Join our signal chat to keep informed of upcoming flyer opportunities.
Talk to your neighbors and family. This is SO IMPORTANT. The more you can mention and talk about the importance of voting, the importance of this election, and how to get involved, the better.
BE LOUD!!!
