Being a registered voter AND voting is critical for gun owners!! Also, being certified to run voter registration drives and doing so will greatly expand the gun-owner voter base.
Bloomberg is not playing games. He has pledged $46 million for the upcoming election and we know that money is going to elect gun grabbers (https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/bloomberg-backed-gun-regulation-group-pledges-45-million-for-election/ar-BB1qWoB2). Bloomberg may have money, but he certainly doesn’t have the hearts and minds of most Americans, especially gun owners.
There are over 277,000 unregistered voters in Virginia who are gun owners. We need them in the fight! And the Governor has just made changes to help prevent illegal aliens from voting: https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2024/08/08/youngkin-voting-changes-n2643145
If you are not registered to vote, or have a likeminded relative, friend, or coworker who isn’t, here is the link to do it online:

Here is more information and tips about item #2, above, sent by a VCDL member:
BASIC PROCEDURE FOR GATHERING VOTER REGISTRATIONS
Step 1:
Take the online training certification or attend an in-person session. Since time is of the essence, I recommend the simple one-hour online class. You do NOT have to be a part of a drive and can register to do this on your own whenever it is convenient.
Step 2:
At the end of the class, electronically sign the affidavit swearing that you will respectfully follow all procedures involved in collecting the registrations and taking them to your local election office.
Step 3:
Check to make sure your name appears on the rolls of those who have signed the affidavit before proceeding.
At the end of the course, the Virginia Department of Elections will offer to send you up to 200 registration forms in the mail, but it may take a little while for them to arrive. I recommend that you print a few forms to take out with you while you wait for that package. You might also want to grab a few pens and some clipboards to have handy.
Please approach people respectfully, but assertively, about understanding that EVERY SINGLE VOTE COUNTS. Try calling local gun ranges, shops, and clubs to see if they will let you stand by their entry doors or attend a meeting to get gun enthusiasts to register. It will take a little legwork, but this is an election we simply cannot afford to lose.
Everything you need for all these simple steps is available at the link above.
Just think of the power we can mobilize if we ALL get registered and ALL make our voices heard on November 5th!
