Why Can't Dems Win more? Lack of Voter Engagement is Our Answer.
This is a historic graph of voter turnout in America. As you can see, voter turnout has remained relatively low for our country since, well forever. In recent times we only creep over 60% turnout in a few Presidential election years. And never even hit 50% in mid term years. And let’s not even talk about nor track municipal elections, which often barely hit double digits in many of our targeted states.
America has one of the lowest voter turnout rates of any developed country in the world. And this should not be the case.
There is no easy solution. We must campaign, we must canvass, we must register voters. But we do not have to only do those things over and over. We need an additional solution.
We focus on voters
who are newly registered
registered but never voted or seldom vote
Rideshare2Vote offers the newest solution to increasing voter turnout and we hope our program will inspire you to give.
Next we
invite them back into the voting process
Offer them a friendly, ally driver,
Whether they are apathetic, angry, fed up, misunderstand how much their vote matters, or for any other reason, we invite them and give them an easy way to use our Ride2Vote program to go vote.
We treat voting as a civic duty. Both a right and a responsibility when we talk to voters.
Sound simple. Well it is. Our premise is that politics in America has become the sideshow to understanding and protecting our democracy.
Rather than helping voters understanding about the candidates and their positions and how they plan to get those positions into legislation, politics is now a popularity contest that comes with slews of things not even related to what elected officials can accomplish.
We are a disrupter in the process. We work year round and invite dems/progressives to vote in primaries, municipals, run offs, and even special elections.
We are a disrupter. We don’t work for “the party”. We encourage voters that we connect with to show up and vote for who they choose.
We are a disrupter to voter suppression as our program has drivers trained to help a voter get their vote cast legally.
