Jewish Dems Got Out The Vote in Georgia

January 5, 2021

We’ve reached the first milestone of 2021: Election Day in Georgia. The runoff elections today will not just decide control of the Senate – they’ll decide the future of our country. Donald Trump and the GOP are attempting to overturn a free and fair election and subvert the will of the American people. In 15 days, Joe Biden will become the next President of the United States, but Trump and the GOP have damaged our democratic institutions.

That’s why it is so important that we win today in Georgia and send Jon Ossoff and Reverend Raphael Warnock to the Senate. JDCA has done more than any other organization to mobilize the Jewish vote in Georgia. We updated our voter files every day to indicate who’s already voted, so we could effectively phone bank and maximize our impact by mobilizing voters who still need to get to the polls.

Jewish Dems hosted 33 phone banks and events, including a community conversation with Jon Ossoff and Rev. Warnock, a discussion on Black-Jewish relations, and even a game showOver 1,000 volunteers made phone calls and sent text messages to Jewish Georgians, making over 70,000 voter contacts. We ran 54 ads, including direct mail, digital ads, and print ads, reaching voters over 3.8 million times. Join our last event today!
