Texas progressives obviously have our work cut out for us when it comes to turning folks out to vote.
Leading up to the midterm election, I spent hundreds of hours creating content and events to try and drive voter turnout. I've compiled everything I learned from thousands of online & IRL interactions, surveys, and social media data into a brief presentation that I want to share with folks who are invested in galvanizing progressive Texans.
I also want to hear what you learned and observed this election!
Here's how the evening will go:
6:30pm - Arrive & grab food & bev
6:45pm - I'll present my findings
7:05pm - I open the floor for folks to share their own thoughts about this election. This is not a bitch session or an endless airing of grievances! This is a time for folks to offer observations from their own election experience, ideas on how to grow civic engagement among progressive Texans, and general proactive brainstorming.
8pm - Formal end to event. But you're welcome to hang out! Brew & Brew just started a wine club and they will give us the downlow on the vino.
Sponsored by the Brew & Brew's new wine club! Attendees of this event who sign up for the wine club get $25 off their first month with code DEMOCRASEXY.
NOTE: Tickets are free but you MUST reserve one ahead of time if you want to attend because space is extremely limited.
About Democrasexy:
Democrasexy makes democracy sexy so more people do it. I curate events and create content connecting issues we care about with actions we can take in a way that excites rather than overwhelms.
Fun explainer videos, "Tarot for America" videos, & events like "Texorcism" made Democrasexy a finalist for the Austin Chronicle's 2022 "Best Politics & Media Wildcard" Award.
Democrasexy puts fun & humor first and foremost, attracting young Texans to the political process regardless of whether they consider themselves "activists." It's a way of "hiding the vegetable" of civic education by making learning a treat.
