Michelle Obama Pledged to Carry the Dems to Midterm Victory

Former first lady Michelle Obama has a message for Americans as the country approaches the 2022 midterm elections.

The ‘all hands on deck’ approach is practiced by both the Democrats and Republicans since states like Georgia, Arizona, and Pennsylvania are fighting for a party stronghold. We all know that the highly contested 2020 election will make the 2022 midterms much weightier.

She says, “We’ve got to vote like the future of our democracy depends on it.”

During an election year, American politics always feel like a battlefield. That is why Michelle Obama has made it clear that she wants to train up an army. The former first lady has started political activism for the leftist agenda.

She founded a voting organization back in 2018. “When We All Vote” is a nonpartisan, nonprofit whose mission is “to change the culture around voting and to increase participation in each and every election by helping to close the race and age gap.”

In a letter titled “Fight for Our Vote,” the organization recently addressed Americans where Obama laid out a plan of action to “recruit and train at least 100,000 volunteers” to call on their Senators in support of the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

She also said that this would “register more than a million new voters.”

Obama said that the coalition will also enlist thousands of lawyers to protect American voters, work to educate Americans on how to ensure their vote is safe.

The nonprofit is supported by Vote Lab. According to its website, it has 3 “highlights” of completed projects – Vote by Mail Mobilization, Get out to Vote, and P2P Voter Registration Experiment.

“Vote by Mail Mobilization” is intended to make voting more convenient for everybody. However, convenient voting may sound good but it will make the sacred process more corruptible.

Remember that mail-in ballots are often the chosen method. With that, there is less accountability for ballots once they leave the voter’s possession.

“Get Out to Vote” was highly endorsed by many celebrities. This mail program for Virginia’s 2019 election will send one piece of “social pressure mail” one week before the election. Still, many would agree that the leftist Hollywood elites are not really known for their good character and productive ideas.

“P2P Voter Registration Experiment” used tailored voter messaging to sway elections. One of the messages centered on Black Lives Matter.

The Democrats are strongly supporting the celebrity social pressure and convenience voting so this might not likely do much for Republicans.

In an interview with CNN, Stephanie Young, executive director of When We All Vote, said, “We spent all 2021 really fighting for federal voting rights legislation.

Over 20,000 people took (advocacy) action with us (last year), and we knew going throughout this year, and seeing that Congress was not acting, and that the filibuster was getting in the way, we realized that we really had to take matters into our own hands.”

She adds, “We know at the end of the day, we’re not going to be able to out-organize when it comes to fixing our voting system and modernizing it, and replacing the federal legislation, and that’s why it’s twofold.”

Other “When We Vote” action items include, turning schools into “hub[s] of civic engagement and voter participation,” citizen lobbying, and becoming a community organizer “voting squad captain.”
