Does anyone on this board have recs for groups to join that are making substantial efforts to stop Trump from being "elected" in 2024? I'd rather volunteer my time than donate money. I'm looking into Swing Left. I've written letters and made phone calls for them in the past. Any other suggestions?

I’ve volunteered with Swing Left and Vote Forward. Vote Forward encourages voting for everyone and doesn’t specifically say vote Democrat but they strategically target swing areas by demographics/ voter records. There are tons of organizations to help register voters and try to undo the effects of voter suppression, at the National and State level. Statistically if more people voted, we’d have more Democratic votes.
In the months leading up to Election Day I try to spend most of my social media time supporting organizations, candidates and political “influencers” that support the policies I believe in (sometimes I’ll repost something good but I don’t spend time arguing in the comments or trying to change the minds of people who won’t change). This may be a drop in the bucket but views, likes and comments can help a post go viral and that can happen quickly. It does more than watching cat videos would!
