Montana Democratic Party Announces 2024 Coordinated Campaign, “Big Sky Victory” — Montana Democratic Party [1] ['Tiffany Williams'] Date: 2024-07 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Monday, March 18, 2024 CONTACT press@montanademocrats.org Key details announced for historic Native Vote program and juggernaut organizing effort that will elect Jon Tester and Democrats up and down the ballot in 2024 Helena, MT – Today, the Montana Democratic Party announced Big Sky Victory, the coordinated campaign that will re-elect Sen. Jon Tester and elect Democrats up and down the ballot in 2024. The announcement includes the most robust voter outreach program in Indian Country that Montana has ever seen. A historic seven figures will be invested in Native organizing efforts, including full-time Native organizers, organizing offices located on reservations, voter protection and ballot access efforts, and a specialized paid communications plan using tools like mail and digital to reach Native voters with unique, individualized programs for each tribe. Big Sky Victory will be a multi-million dollar program that will hire more than 50 full-time organizers and open more than 20 offices across the state. “Indian Country is facing tough battles in 2024, and the outcome of this election couldn’t be more important,” said Cinda Burd Ironmaker, Native Vote Political Director for the Montana Democratic Party and Blackfeet Tribe member. “From honoring tribal sovereignty, to improving health care delivery, to combating the Missing and Murdered Indigenous People crisis, we deserve elected officials who will fight for us and be our partner. Jon Tester is that fighter. With this historic organizing effort, Native voters will have a powerful voice in 2024 and elect Jon Tester and our other Democratic candidates this November.” “Montana Democrats know how to win in this state: by burning shoe leather and speaking with voters face-to-face,” said Sheila Hogan, Executive Director of the Montana Democratic Party. “Big Sky Victory is a well-resourced, juggernaut organizing effort that will ensure we are getting every eligible voter out to the polls in 2024. We’re fired up and we’re ready to re-elect Jon Tester and elect Democrats up and down the ballot.” “Big Sky Victory is the earliest, best-funded organizing program Montana has ever seen, and we’re ready to hit the ground running,” said Nick Marroletti, Coordinated Campaign Director for the Montana Democratic Party. “We’ve got so many crucial races on the ballot this cycle, from the U.S. Senate to the Montana State Legislature. The coalition that will re-elect Jon Tester and secure other Democratic victories in 2024 is strong – veterans, Native voters, women, independents, young voters, and so many more will come together in November to re-elect the dirt farmer from Big Sandy.” The announcement of the 2024 Native Vote program follows the highly successful Native organizing efforts in 2018, when Sen. Jon Tester was last up for re-election, which turned out more Montanans on the seven reservations than turned out in 2016 for the presidential election. ### [END] --- [1] Url: https://www.montanademocrats.org/news/montana-democratic-party-announces-2024-coordinated-campaign-big-sky-victory Published and (C) by Daily Yonder - Keep it Rural Content appears here under this condition or license: Creative Commons CC BY-ND 4.0 International. via Magical.Fish Gopher News Feeds: gopher://magical.fish/1/feeds/news/dailyyonder/
