The problem? Field Team 6 has contact information for hundreds of thousands of unregistered likely Democrats – FAR more than we can afford to text. Yet texting is an incredibly effective outreach tool. And there is always huge volunteer demand for texting. So the only obstacle is funding.
The solution? Text Arcades.
A Text Arcade is a super-fast text bank that costs $25 a ticket. 100% of your ticket price goes to funding your 1,400 texts. (To put this in perspective, it costs a volunteer $1,300 to send 1,400 postcards!) We pay for about half of those texts in order to keep the ticket price reasonable, so shout-outs (shouts-out?) to our donors who enable us to do that!
IMPORTANT NOTE: We switched texting software in late 2023 – so if you haven’t done this already, before the text arcade, we need you to click on this link and create a NEW TextOut ID, so you can sign in on the day of the text bank:

Please do this ASAP so we can get you in the system, and ready to go! Thank you!
This fight for our democracy is no game, but thanks for playing!
OTHER NOTE: Our target state may change any given week, depending on how many names we get through, how many are available, and last minute targeting priorities. Thank you for rolling with this!
