[This is a Virtual Ruby* event, taking place over Zoom. Join us: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84560102471?pwd=UWd1d0lENlFML0xpTXRPVnlTRFJrUT09. Nonmembers are welcome to join; please donate if you are able!]

November 3 is coming up soon! Join Jenny Gottstein & Shakirah Simley for a ballot party, and get educated about the local measures on the upcoming ballot. We'll have breakout rooms for San Francisco and Alameda counties.

We're sharing informed and neutral information, not recommendations.

Attendees, please pick at least one issue on the local ballot and be able to answer the following questions:

+ What's the argument for it?

+ What's the argument against it?

+ Who endorses it?

+ Who opposes it?

+ Who put $$$ toward it?

For your ballot research, check out these voter guides/endorsements:

This event is open to women and nonbinary nonmembers. Select a "donation" ticket. All donations (in any amount!) help to keep The Ruby running. If you are unable to donate at this time, feel free to enter "0.00."

*While we shelter in place during the Covid19 pandemic, The Ruby's physical location will be closed. As a collective, we'll continue to gather online for virtual workshops, events, and discussions. All are welcome to join us for these events. * For those who can afford it and would like to support The Ruby during this uncertain time, we are offering 3 tiers of virtual membership: $5/week, $15/week, and $25/week. (Though we have some money in our emergency savings account to get us through the next little while, we're pretty nervous about the future, and how long this might go on for.) Please help only if it's feasible for you. If you're in a tough time financially right now, we absolutely get it. Please, take care of yourself and stay connected to this community so we can help.

Here are the tiers of virtual membership (use these links to sign up):

$5/week - https://www.joinit.org/o/the-ruby/aRsJyABygL4FvvEJT

$15/week - https://www.joinit.org/o/the-ruby/o56ggrnNNx9rzn6AA

$25/week - https://www.joinit.org/o/the-ruby/q37HfmWSQMoLzPt4p

Want to make a one-time donation of more or less? We can still accept donations through last year's GoFundMe. Link is here.

Our Virtual Ruby calendar will be updated as events are added.
