Folks,
Samantha Boucher here - I'm a technologist and long-time political operative serving as Deputy Director at Turn Left, and I've got some news to share.
The Democratic Party just laid off over 400 technical staff members - many with decades of critical experience - with barely 36 hours notice and no severance.
This is a crisis moment for progressive technology.
While the GOP gets blank checks from tech billionaires like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, Democratic leadership is:
❌ Gutting their technical infrastructure
❌Allowing the sale of our critical voter data infrastructure to foreign-owned firms
❌ Leaving campaigns without essential tools and support
But Turn Left isn't standing by while this happens.
We're building the next generation of progressive campaign tools:
✅ Advanced voter targeting and analytics
✅ Cutting-edge volunteer management systems
✅ Data-driven messaging platforms
Our tools were already being tested in key races this year - and they worked. But to get them into the hands of every campaign that needs them (not just the well-funded ones), we need sustainable monthly support from grassroots donors like you.
Will you join our monthly donor program to help build the progressive tech infrastructure we desperately need?
Can't commit monthly? A one-time donation will still help get these tools to campaigns faster.
You can't win modern elections with outdated tools. If party leadership won't invest in the technology we need to win - we will.
In solidarity,
-Samantha Boucher
