In the 2024 election the biggest group of people was those who didn't vote. Now to be fair we don't know how they would have voted if they did vote but I think there may be untapped potential in reaching out to non-voters.

Mamdani won because of passionate voters who volunteered for him.

Heck even just with the existing amount of Democrats, imagine if more of us boycotted Tesla, Twitter, Uline and other right-wing donors. Imagine if more of us installed solar panels and heat pumps to reduce how much fossil fuels we use which helps defund the companies that donate a lot and support the GOP a lot.
