Far be it from me to jinx things but I’m not superstitious, reports are that efforts to protect voting rights are working, and the early exit polls, as imperfect as exit polling may be, look good for the Democrats.

So I think it’s high time to recommend some places where progressives may well be partying tonight. The nationwide Living Liberally network’s WhereDoIGoOnElectionNight.com has details on election night party spots, from the Grandview Cafe in Columbus, Ohio to Gentle Ben’s in Tucson, Arizona to Spencer’s Stadium Tavern in Indianapolis, Indiana to the Greek Cusina in Portland, Oregon to the Publick House in Columbia, South Carolina.

We gathered for the primaries. We turned the debates into communal spectacles. Now, it’s Game Seven — don’t watch it alone. With more than three hundred Drinking Liberally chapters across the country, most of you should be able to find a gathering without venturing too far afield. If not, help spur the economy and turn your local watering hole into a de facto Living Liberally party.

Support The Nation’s June Fundraising Campaign

With the midterm elections now firmly upon us, the question is whether Democratic candidates will do more than merely occupy ballot lines as mild alternatives to the red-hot crisis that is Donald Trump.

As Trump spends over $1 billion a day on a globally destabilizing war on Iran and admits that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation,” millions across the country are struggling with the surging costs of essentials. Democrats must seize this moment and advance bold, small-“d” populist ideas—not settle for cynical caution that once again snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Nation elevates progressive ideas, movements, and elected officials achieving real change across the country into the national conversation. At the same time, our journalists are exposing how crypto and AI-funded super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to knock out candidates they oppose, reporting on the devastating impact of the Supreme Court’s evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, and sounding the alarm on attempts by red states to quickly redraw electoral maps, disenfranchising Southern Black voters.

We can play this critical role because of support from readers like you. This June, we’re raising $20,000 to power The Nation’s independent journalism in the run-up to November’s immensely consequential elections.

It’s in our power to build a more just society, and your support at this critical moment brings us closer to that bold vision. I hope you’ll donate today.

Onward,
