From American Conversations with @hcrichardson.bsky.social & Kate Barr, founder of the Can't Win Victory Fund. @katebarrcanwin.bsky.social Watch our full conversation on YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/yxTcH-LQios

Find this episode as soon as you can! It’s amazing! I watch on HCR’s YouTube channel.

@katebarrcanwin.bsky.social will be going live with @hcrichardson.bsky.social at noon est today! Find them in HCR’s Facebook, substack and YouTube channels! Will be diving into gerrymandering, voting rights and why supporting state leg candidates everywhere (even when they can’t win, yet) matters!

🚨 Flipping the House blue is an ABSOLUTE MUST this year. Donate today. #Blue26 NOTE: This is an #UnlikelyHeroes page *deliberately* featuring Dems running in RED districts to boost statewide turnout & force Republicans to defend their turf. secure.actblue.com/donate/house...

VA passed their ballot measure to gerrymander themselves (in order to counter GOP mid decade redistricting in states like Texas). How do I feel? Sad. Relieved. Bummed. Bleh.

Share with anyone in SC, if we run everywhere…we #makethemrun and spend resources in places they never dreamed they’d have to!!!

This is your sign to stop waiting for “someone else” to do it. Project 140 has been helping Florida Democrats run for State Legislature since 2020, and we’re not backing down from our goal to fight for a better Florida in every community. Florida deserves better. Why not you? 👉blue-florida.com/run

Plot twist: these kids grew up and decided to fight #gerrymandering. Now we run campaigns, make trouble, and occasionally remember to eat lunch. Meet the team behind the Can’t Win Victory Fund.

Democracy isn’t a spectator sport. We voted, you should too. 🗳 Early voting in NC runs through 2/28 and you can fix any registration issues on the spot. Wrong address? Not registered? Handle it there. Election Day is 3/3. Early vote = easiest vote. Go now. Bring a friend. Bring two!

Our brilliant friend and fellow fighter for fair maps, @samwang.bsky.social , is running for NJ CD 12💥💥💥 NJ (and all of us) would be so lucky to have him in Congress!

Lindsey had quite a day yesterday. Keeping up with him is a full time job. When I beat him, none of us will ever have to worry about him again. Doesn’t that sound amazing? 💙🇺🇸💙

We agree!!!

Dear algorithm - connect us with candidates running for NC State House and Senate in rigged districts who want to learn more about running a Can't Win campaign. Who's Can'tidate Curious? Contact us ⬇️ #ncpol

A sitting GOP legislator running for NC Supreme Court took illegal donations from lobbyists. She chairs the House Elections Law Committee. She claims she didn’t understand the law. This race decides whether Justice @anitaearls.bsky.social keeps her seat. Ethics matter. Fair courts matter.

Running honestly doesn’t depress voters. It respects them. Can’t Win candidates prove that you can tell the truth about rigged maps and motivate people to vote, organize, and fight back.

Had a great time talking with @katebarrcanwin.bsky.social about the @cantwinvictoryfund.bsky.social in North Carolina. Taking a fresh approach to highlighting the damage done by gerrymandered maps — and having fun doing it. (link below)

***North Carolina*** Thank you to everyone who’s already stepped up to run — you’re doing the work of democracy. If you’re still feeling that “should I do this?” tug, reach out. We still have districts that need a champion, and we’ll walk you through it every step of the way.

@rbhubbell.bsky.social heard you were trying to get in touch with @katebarrcanwin.bsky.social -- we'd love to chat! Email us at [email protected] 🩷

That’s how long we have to fill the map with brave weirdos who believe in fair maps and real democracy. Huge love to everyone who’s already filed — you’re the real super volunteers. 🔥 Still a few uncontested races left, and honestly… it might be your turn.

This!

#Gerrymandered and fired up? Fight back—run for office, even when the map is rigged. Can’t Win Victory Fund helps “can’tidates” in impossible districts make noise, grow the vote for up-ballot races and push for fair maps—and yes, we make it fun. Apply to run: cantwinvictoryfund.com/run

Watch the NC GOP rig our maps in real time: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW2v... When your policies suck, the only way to win is to screw your voters.

We do our best…

They came in like a wrecking ball…and somehow made the NC maps even worse.

They’re all 🐓🐓🐓🐓

Breaking: the NCGOP is once again allergic to democracy. They’re rushing new maps to a vote in secret because they know NC voters hate their plan. If they’re so confident, why hide? Pack the gallery. Let’s give the chickens something to cluck about 🐔 👉 www.mobilize.us/ncdems/event... #gerrymandering

They said anarchists. We heard block party. Democracy looks like joy. Like neighbors showing up. Like unicorns and lobsters and people who believe no one should rule alone. Long live the people. #NoKings
