Hi! I need help registering to vote. I've filled my form out online via Headcount.org, but need to print and deliver. Moving from out of state, I don't have a MA liscence yet, but I do have a signed lease and new teacher contract, so I'm an official resident. What do I need to do to vote for Markley? I know there are other progressives on the ballot too. Even if it's a conditional I get it. Any help is much appreciated!

Hi everyone!

My name is Caleb and I am a field fellow on the Markey campaign. Early voting begins on Saturday 8/22, and with it begins our GOTV phonebanks. Voters have been casting votes by mail the past few weeks, but we still need to contact as many Massachusetts voters as possible to ensure Ed is reelected and continues to fight for the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, and countless other progressive priorities. As a campaign we will now have 7 daily statewide phonebanks from 8/22 up until election day on 9/1! Even if you live outside of Massachusetts please join as many as you can. We will win this campaign if we continue to organize and have meaningful conversations with voters. Here are the sign up links for all of our phonebanks:

Saturdays: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306797/
Sundays: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306807/
Mondays: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306769/
Tuesdays: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306790/
Wednesday: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306791/
Thursday: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306792/
Friday: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/306793/

Again there are 7 phonebanks as early as 10 AM and as late as 6 PM every day.

Thank you and with your help we will win this!

Hi everyone,

My name is Caleb and I am a fellow with Senator Ed Markey’s reelection campaign. As I am sure many of you know, Ed is one of our country's most progressive senators, who wrote the Green New Deal, was an original cosponser of Medicare for All, and more recently partnered with Senator Sanders to propose a 2000 dollar a month universal basic income for the rest of the coronavirus pandemic. However, Ed is being primaried from the right by Joe Kennedy and the race could really go either way at this point.

Due to Covid-19 every Massachusetts voter can vote by mail in this election. This week is hugely important for the campaign as the first votes, and potentially the majority of votes, will be cast in the next few days. Therefore, its essential we get as many volunteers as possible talking to voters this week. We have phonebanks held over zoom from Tuesday to Thursday at 2, 4, 5, and 6, all of which last about two hours. There will be a full training for new volunteers and someone to answer questions throughout. Please consider spending just a few hours this week fighting for progressive change and proving that environmentalism and progressivism wins in this country!

Thank you all so much!

Hi everyone,

My name is Caleb and I am an intern with senator Ed Markey's reelection campaign in the Greater Lowell area. It is important to me to reelect Ed Markey because of his commitment to progressive policies such as the GND (which he co-wrote) and Medicare for All (he was an original co-sponsor). That being said, his primary race is currently extremely close, and he might even be a slight underdog. Please consider volunteering with the campaign if it is as important to you to keep one of the Senate's most progressive voices in office as it is to me. The best way to help the campaign is through phonebanking. We have a Lowell regional phonebank on every Monday night from 5-7.

Sign up here: https://www.mobilize.us/edmarkey/event/288279/

Additionally, if you could fill out this form whether or not you are willing to support/volunteer for Ed that would be incredibly helpful, as it helps us gauge support throughout the state: https://support.edmarkey.com/caleb-blackburn-johnson

Thank you all so much, and with your help I am confident we will reelect Ed Markey and show that prioritizing environmentalism and progressivism is a winning strategy!
