UUC's UU the Vote Team put together about 100 packets of "Reclaim Our Vote" postcards (each containing 20 postcards, addresses and scripts—all needed materials except post card stamps) to be written and mailed to select voters in Texas and Virginia as part of a “Get Out the Vote” campaign for the 2026 midterm U.S. legislative elections.

These packets are available to be picked up in the church office. Alternatively, you can contact co-chairs Betty Williams and Meta Thayer to pick up packets from their homes if that is more convenient for you. Betty lives in NE Seattle, email Betty.Susan.Williams@gmail.com. Meta is in the Green Lake neighborhood, email metathayer@gmail.com.

Reclaim Our Vote is a project of the Center for Common Ground and a partner organization with the UUA Side with Love UU the Vote Project.

“Reclaim Our Vote is a grassroots, primarily volunteer-run campaign that focuses on increasing BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) voter turnout through post-carding, texting, and phone banking. Working with local, on-the-ground partners and our Democracy Centers, we build effective, respectful, and relevant campaigns that engage BIPOC voters around upcoming elections.”

Check out the Reclaim Our Vote website for more information and to sign up for their textbanking and phonebanking efforts

Please let us know if you have any questions.
