Ballot Brigade:  
 
Debby Vink (email 4Sep26):  
To verify that soliciting a brigade would be acceptable, I just spoke with someone at the State Secretary of State's Office.  That person verified that a person can carry 10 ballots to a dropbox.  They don't have to include their own ballot, but they then couldn't submit their ballot to a dropbox if they submit 10 others,  as only 10/per person are allowed, so theirs plus 9 others.   He said it is fine if we solicit volunteers to submit ballots for others, if that was in question.
 
Potential populations needing such a service:  retirement communities, retail workers, latino communities.  
Debby Vink:  County has already identified some groups, especially disabled.  We  should get the list so we don't duplicate efforts.  
 
Vote Riders:  https://voteriders.org/
A national organization that helps people get IDs
 
Info Gathering Ideas:  
 
Google Query -- blog w/ comments
Poll w/ responses emailed to moderator
 
Suzanne will speak with Erika and Debby about the poll function on ClubExpress.  
 
 
There are other aspects to solicit ideas:  how to safeguard the election, how to identify threats, what are the legal boundaries
 
 
Things we shouldn't forget:  
          Explain our theme:  reacting to Constitutional Crisis
               take stuff from website on SAVE Act
               encourage talking to relatives in other states
 
           info on reaching representatives:  It's easy to write to Senator.  Here's how
 
          invite people to Candidate forums & Ballot Issues teams
          Need volunteers to collect and sort questions
