2026 is looking to be a HUGE election for the climate movement. Join us to debrief the results with us the night after Election Day!

You’ve probably heard about the race to flip the Senate. But this November 3rd, voters will also decide some of the most critical down ballot elections on climate, data center regulation, and affordability.

Lead Locally will bringing together our supporters, partners, and volunteers on Nov 4th, the day after the election, to debrief:

-Did Democrats flip state legislatures in states like Arizona, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin and what does this mean for their work to lower bills by transitioning to clean energy?

-Did pro-climate Democrats win seats or majorities on statewide utility boards in Arizona and Georgia?

-How did climate ballot initiatives fare in Oregon and Colorado?

-What can we learn from these results as we head into elections in 2027 and 2028?

Lead Locally worked with partners in several of these states to call hundreds of thousands of voters, knock thousands of doors, and raise critical funds for these down ballot champs. After a year of organizing, we’re excited to come together to celebrate wins and learn from results.

Hope to see you there!
