Some notes from Hong Kong:

- lennon walls: they took space like in a subway or on a wall and created and hung tons of propaganda
- they held space in malls & airports: sang, brought signs, chanted, all in a public place
- they had constant propaganda about police brutality, black bloc isn't bad, made it a marketing campaign
- they had events for all ages; some of their strongest leaders were 70 yrs old

Some election related info. Part 1, Election Day:

Tools to report problems at the polls, track wait times, get food to people. We’ve compiled them here:
https://civictech.guide/election2020/ but this site isn’t easy to navigate, yet.

In addition to all the “find your polling place” sites I’m sure you’ve already seen, like vote.org, here are Election Day tools:

https://dfwmv.org/ Don’t F&*K with my Vote
Ride Share to the Polls (largely TX and NC) https://rideshare2vote.net/ - also Lyft is offering discounted rides

Food to the polls: Pizza to the Polls and Chefs for the Polls

Voting Problems: See Say 2020 (https://seesay2020.com/_ look at the map! The only downside to this site is that they not enough people know about it.

Center for New Data is monitoring wait times at polls based on satellite imagery: https://www.newdata.org/observingdemocracy
HOWEVER, there is a lag of 3-4 hours on the data, so it’s unclear how useful this is going to be on election day - or it might be more useful for research afterwards.

Election Protection Hotlines - 1-866 Our Vote and the Biden campaign has a hotline, too. They aren’t great, aren’t mapping problems are helping if something really egregious is going on, mainly answering questions like where is my poll.
