<p>Turkey time is nearly here…with all its thankfulness, and gifting
& giving around the corner. We’d like to post another ‘sustainer
sharing’ with you, and encourage you to remember us in your thanks
& giving in the week ahead…we hope you’ll <u>consider support for
Better Ballot NC</u> with a sustainer (recurring) contribution, like
this RCV-passionate profile supporter – our current BBNC Leader:</p>
<p><em>"I am a sustainer of Better Ballot NC because I believe our
democracy should actually represent the will of the people. Right now
especially, we need to find ways of improving our system that
advantage the voice of the largely reasonable middle of the
electorate, not minority of either extreme. The beauty of the United
States is that we are a wide variety of humanity that constantly finds
a way to integrate news ideas from every part the human spectrum. I
believe Rank Choice Voting is currently the next best way to
accomplish that goal!"</em></p>
<p>- Daniel E. Kemp</p>
<p>BBNC 2021-22 President</p>
<p>Become/Join our sustainers here:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.betterballotnc.org/contribute?e=2536630e9964775c92f7ac2d42229bc6&utm_source=betterballotnc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=eoy_2021_sustain_and_smile_2&n=2&test_email=1" target="_blank">https://www.betterballotnc.org/contribute</a></p>
<p>And/or another great option would be to choose us as your
<strong>charity nominee at Amazon Smile</strong> ahead of any black
Friday/cyberweek activity – there’s no cost at all and the company
will donate a share of their profit each time you shop with them or
Whole Foods online. Here’s our link to set that up (and you’d shop at
the <a href="http://smile.amazon.com" target="_blank">smile.amazon.com</a> portal vs. the regular one for us to receive the
benefit (the two sites in Amazon are exactly the same for
customers):</p>

<p>We do always welcome one-time donations at end-of-year giving time,
if that works best for you…you can do that at the link above, or by
check/money order to our address at Better Ballot NC, 146 Robert
Alston Jr. Drive, Pittsboro, NC 27312.</p>
<p>-------------------------------------</p>
<p>Remember, all contributions to BBNC are 100% tax deductible… *and*,
in 2021 anyone can take a tax deduction up to $300 for donations
*without* having to itemize or meet any other criteria! (per the
Pandemic recovery act, just like in 2020, see form 1040 at <a href="http://irs.gov" target="_blank">irs.gov</a>.)
If a little time’s a better gift to give, here’s a way to let us know
(we’ve many fun things small or bigger to take part in!)</p>
