On Thursday, September 12, 2024, at the venue SVN West in downtown San Francisco, DJs Austin Millz, David Harness, and more were spinning tunes for democracy in three sets. Disco for Democracy, organized by Manny Yekutiel of Manny’s, included 360-degree sets featuring indoor dancing and outdoor roller skating on the rooftop.
In the final month of the election, Manny’s will be organizing phone banks, writing thousands of letters, and bussing people to Reno to get out the vote. Nevada, a neighboring state of California, has during recent weeks come within the margin of error for chances of turning it blue for Kamala Harris and delivering a key state in her campaign to be the next U.S. president.
Yekutiel shared, “Our plan is to bus at least 100 San Franciscans each weekend in the final month to Reno to knock on doors all weekend, doing our part. San Franciscans can make the difference but we’re going to have to work hard to do it. The funds raised from this iconic Disco for Democracy event will go straight to this effort—funding stamps for letters to Nevada voters, bus rides and motel stays and meals for folks coming to Reno to knock on doors, and to our weekly and then daily disco phone banks.”
