The Election Deadline is TONIGHT
Voting is open until 11:59 PM. Whether you need a ballot resent or want to join as a member today, here is everything you need to get involved.
Comrades,
This is it—the final hours of our election. Voting officially closes tonight, Saturday, 4/11, at 11:59 PM. To date, 30 members have cast their ballots. If you haven’t joined them yet, now is the time.
Troubleshooting Your Ballot
Missing your link? If you are a dues-paying member and haven’t seen your ballot (even in your spam folder), please DM us here or email info@savgadsa.org. Include the email address you used for registration so we can verify and re-issue your ballot immediately.
Want to join and vote today? You still can. If you join DSA by 11:59 PM tonight and forward your membership confirmation email to us, you will receive a ballot.
Note: Please do this as early as possible. We need a manual window of time to process these requests before the clock strikes midnight!
Removing Barriers to Membership
We believe that financial status should never be a barrier to participating in our democracy. If you’ve been waiting to become a card-carrying member but are worried about the cost, here are two ways to join us:
1. Solidarity Income-Based Dues DSA operates on a sliding scale. You can choose to contribute 1%, 2%, or 3% of your monthly income.
How it works: It’s an honor system. For example, if you earn $15,000/year ($1,250/month), your dues could be as low as $12.50/month.
2. Dues Waivers For those currently facing significant financial hardship where any monthly payment is unaffordable, the Dues Waiver program ensures you remain a Member in Good Standing with full voting rights for $0.
Note: We ask that this remain a resource for those who truly need it so we can protect the longevity of the program.
In solidarity,
