Why 270 Reasons? 

A candidate needs at least 270 electoral votes to win the presidential election. Over the next few weeks, we’ll present 270 reasons why Harris and Walz need to get those electoral votes. We are not affiliated with the Harris/Walz campaign in any way, but we do believe that four more years of Trump will shred the fabric of this country and will irrevocably divide its people.

So maybe you have a loved one or friend or colleague who still needs evidence that a Harris/Walz administration would be preferable to four more years of Trump. Maybe you know a new voter who is just beginning to focus on the election. Or maybe you yourself are weighing the pros and cons.
