- Are you concerned about who will be elected in November?
- Are you concerned that your voice will be heard?
- Are you unsure what more you can do?
Wisconsin AAUW has a new and simple program that will help!
We are introducing, effectively immediately, an ELECTION ‘24 AMBASSADOR PROGRAM for all members, friends and family with a challenge pledge.
WHY BECOME AN ELECTION ‘24 AMBASSADOR?
- Election ‘24 has been referred to as the most consequential election of the century. We simply cannot afford to be complacent at the local, state and especially national level.
WHAT IS AN ELECTION ‘24 AMBASSADOR?
- The program uses the “power of one,” a theory that one person’s action can change the future.
WHAT IS AN AMBASSADOR CHALLENGE PLEDGE?
- Your pledge to contact at least 10 people and get their commitment to vote!
WHAT IS THE GOAL?
- GET OUT AN INFORMED VOTE! Create awareness about the critical importance of voting by sharing these websites with our friends and family.
