What difference could that make in an election?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at some key results from 2020.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunowners.org\/gun-owners-must-vote\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-776232\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunowners.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/register_to_vote_graphic-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Gun owners must vote!\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Biden\/Trump results would have been reversed with just 43,000 votes in three states:<br \/>\nArizona \u2013 10,357<br \/>\nGeorgia \u2013 11,799<br \/>\nWisconsin \u2013 20,608<\/p>\n<p>Georgia and Wisconsin have about 500,000 unregistered to vote hunters and sportsmen each.

It doesn\u2019t even include the many who are registered but choose to stay home!<\/p>\n<p>These numbers are depressing, but they also present us with an opportunity to win big in 2024\u2026if we get our act together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s not enough for just you to vote\u2014what about your pro-gun family?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now, we understand that most GOA members are already registered to vote and don\u2019t miss an election. After all, the reason to join GOA in the first place is to make our voices heard in politics.<\/p>\n<p>But we need to look beyond ourselves and widen the circle.<\/p>\n<p>Home is a good place to start.<\/p>\n<p>Consider this. There are 17 children of voting age between the three signers of this email.<\/p>\n<p>Every single one of them is registered to vote (and happily, they all vote pro-Second Amendment). So, including us, our spouses, children, and their spouses, there are more than 30 registered voters represented.<\/p>\n<p>Look around at your own circle of influence. Got everyone covered? If not, let\u2019s get to work.<\/p>\n<p>Just follow this link to find your state. This will take you DIRECTLY to your state elections page. Your data doesn\u2019t go to GOA or any third party.<\/p>\n<p>Voter registration varies by state, but for most of the country registration ends in October.<\/p>\n<p>Ok, got your family registered? Great, then go out even further and hit up your friends\u2014in real life and on social media\u2014and your hunting and range partners, too.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll probably hear people say, \u201cBut the system is rigged, my vote won\u2019t matter anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the deal. We know the Left has been playing fast and loose with elections for DECADES\u2014this is not something that just snuck up on us recently.<\/p>\n<p>But withdrawal from the process is not a solution\u2014it\u2019s a cop-out. We all need to pull our boots on and GET TO WORK.<\/p>\n<p>If people think the other side is stealing votes, fine. Then let\u2019s blow the doors off with so many votes that it\u2019s too big to rig!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goa.nationbuilder.com\/r?u=n40bNs7zi8FuNbJronbs16KwRIjtRQgyTP1Q8S4Sy28&amp;e=238467278919af6433c55c37e498bf8c&amp;utm_source=goa&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=na_1_register_to_vote_08_29_20&amp;n=7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to register to vote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The stakes couldn\u2019t be higher.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If extreme leftist Democrats win a majority in the United States Senate, they will be able to rig the system.<\/p>\n<p>First, they will have the votes to eliminate the legislative filibuster.<\/p>\n<p>At that point, a simple majority in both chambers of Congress will be enough to pass just about any gun control they want.<\/p>\n<p>They will also have the votes to make Washington D.C. a state (something the Founders never envisioned), guaranteeing two more anti-gun Senators. With such slim majorities as we\u2019ve seen in recent years, that one change could lock pro-gunners out for a generation.<\/p>\n<p>And, they can expand or pack the Supreme Court in their favor.<\/p>\n<p>We are closer than many people realize to a seismic shift in the very nature of our government.<\/p>\n<p>This is our moment in history. We are truly at a fork in the road that will determine the country our children and grandchildren will inherit.<\/p>\n<p>So please consider this 2024 three-point plan of action:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>First, look in the mirror. If that person is not registered to vote, take care of that right away.<\/li>\n<li>Second, check that every adult in your household is registered to vote.<\/li>\n<li>Third, expand the circle and reach out to other family members and friends who you know to be supporters of gun rights and get them registered as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Those are the three most important things for you to do right away.<\/p>\n<p>If you can go the extra mile, <a href=\"https:\/\/goa.nationbuilder.com\/r?u=Txeb-kJoE_ff7TQgIUq98LppVldNVF50U_Eb3rqmeL8&amp;e=238467278919af6433c55c37e498bf8c&amp;utm_source=goa&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=na_1_register_to_vote_08_29_20&amp;n=8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">please consider helping GOA reach out to more gun owners and hunters across the country<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Right now, we are renting email lists to blast this message out to as many people as possible.<\/p>\n<p>We will also be running ads digitally and on social media to spread the word.<\/p>\n<p>Your support will help us reach out to even more unregistered citizens and get them into the fight. <a href=\"https:\/\/goa.nationbuilder.com\/r?u=Txeb-kJoE_ff7TQgIUq98LppVldNVF50U_Eb3rqmeL8&amp;e=238467278919af6433c55c37e498bf8c&amp;utm_source=goa&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=na_1_register_to_vote_08_29_20&amp;n=9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Please click here to donate.
