| | |  | | Below is Joe Biden’s newsletter for October 19, 2020. Please submit questions and feedback here. | | Folks --
It feels surreal to write, but this is the final newsletter I’ll send you during this campaign.
Since my last one in September, it certainly hasn’t been an easy ride, but I’ve continued to be inspired by every person who is supporting my campaign, and how much you’re doing every day to win this battle for the soul of the nation.
So I’m very excited to let you know everything that I’ve been doing this month, and what we’re looking at in the last two weeks of this campaign.
But first, I want to take this opportunity to say thank you.
Whether you joined us last year, last month, or last week, this campaign is for you. We’re for everyone who’s ever been knocked down, who’s ever been counted out. And I am so grateful that you’ve chosen to be a part of this moment in history.
Your support -- and the faith you have entrusted in me -- means more than you will ever know. It’s what will sustain me through these last days of the campaign, and I hope I am doing everything I can to give you strength, too.
We’re so close to the finish line. I know that together we can win this thing, but we each have to work our hearts out over these last 15 days.
So here’s what I’ve been doing, and where I hope you’ll join me to keep fighting in this final stretch of our battle for the soul of the nation. | | Campaign Updates
This month I’m grateful to be back on the road, speaking directly with voters when I can safely, following the guidance of public health experts. With early voting underway across the country, I’m asking everyone to do their part to elect me, Kamala, and Democrats up and down the ticket by making a voting plan and, if you can, voting early today -- and that includes you.
And I’m not the only one sharing this message on the road. As my wife Jill and Stacey Abrams said last week in Atlanta, millions of voters have already started casting their ballots to bring real, lasting change to our country. Will you join these voters and make a difference in this election? You can click the image below to make a plan to vote right now: |  | | I hope you’ll make a plan to vote early -- and on your own schedule! Once you’ve confirmed your polling location, you can share this email or this link with your friends and family in your state, so they know where they can vote early too: iwillvote.com/locate | | | I also recently got to do one of my favorite things: be on a train! After my debate with President Trump, Jill and I boarded the Build Back Better Express Tour through Pennsylvania and Ohio, where we listened to folks and discussed how we can make their lives better.
But keeping the trains running on a presidential campaign takes an incredible amount of resources, especially in these final weeks. That’s why I have to ask: if you’re able to help keep the Team Joe train running, can you chip in $25 to power us through this final stretch? |  | | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | |
| | Later in the month I traveled to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania to talk about the cost of division. About how much it has cost America in the past, about how much it is costing us now, and about why I believe in this moment, we must come together as a nation.
Every generation that’s followed Gettysburg has been faced with a moment when it must answer this question: will they allow the sacrifices made there to be in vain, or be fulfilled? This is our moment to answer this essential American question, for ourselves and for our time.
You can click here or the image below to watch my full speech about how, together, we can make sure divisions of our time will give way to the dreams of a brighter, better future. |  | | And now, voting has begun in some fashion in all 50 states. In fact, more than 20 million people have already cast their ballots. I’m deeply humbled every time I speak with someone who has entrusted their vote to me and Kamala, and I hope you know how grateful I am for your support, too.
I don’t enjoy asking for your hard-earned dollars, but with voting well underway, we don’t have a moment to spare to reach undecided voters and turn out our supporters in every battleground state. If you’re able, I hope you’ll make your first donation to my campaign right now. Anything you’re able to give will go immediately towards our voter outreach efforts, and we don’t have a minute to lose: | | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | |
| What’s Coming
One of the most important things this campaign will be doing to win over the next 15 days is reaching out to supporters and voters where they are -- on their phones. Will you commit to calling your neighbors to speak about the importance of this election? | | | | And like I made clear in Las Vegas, my campaign isn’t leaving any voters behind. That’s why I’m proud to say we’re also hosting bilingual phone banks. Will you help my team make phone calls in English and Spanish to reach more voters and make sure their voices are heard? You can sign up for a bilingual phone bank training by clicking here or the image below >> |  | | We will continue to travel when we can to speak safely with voters in battleground states across the country. You can always tune in to our speeches at joebiden.com/live, but on special occasions you can check out twitch.tv/votejoe where we not only stream speeches but also share some relaxing landscapes during our travels, sometimes alongside artists creating remarkable pieces like this portrait of Kamala Harris: |  | | And then, in just over two weeks, it will be November 3rd. That’s a date that once felt like it would never come, but now it’s rapidly approaching.
What we do between now and then will determine the future of our country. So I’m not kidding when I say I need you with me more than ever before.
If you’re able, can I count on you to chip in $25, or whatever makes sense for your budget, right now? Whatever you can give will make a powerful difference in these final days of our battle for the soul of the nation: | | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | |
| | That’s all I’ve got for today.
We have just two weeks to win this thing. I’m so grateful for everything you’ve done to get us to this point, but right now, we need to dig deeper than ever before.
This final stretch won’t be easy.
So I’ll leave you with something that always gives me strength in tough times -- the words of an Irish poet. Today that’s Seamus Heaney, whose words I think of often:
History says,
Don't hope on this side of the grave,
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed-for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up,
And hope and history rhyme.
This is our moment to make hope and history rhyme.
We can prove that love is more powerful than hate. That hope is more powerful than fear. That light is more powerful than dark.
We’ve got just 15 days left to do it. So let’s get to work.
Joe | | |
