Swing Left: Identity

The day after the November 9th election, many of us here at the Noise 13 office were distraught. As individuals that share the Bay Area community’s progressive values, not to mention an all-ladies crew hoping to witness the historic election of our country’s first female president, the results came as a huge blow. Like so many others, we were shocked, angry, and scared.

But then, an opportunity arose. Not 48 hours later, our brand strategist Miriam Stone approached us with an intriguing idea. She, along with her husband Josh Krafchin and their friend Ethan Todras-Whitehill, wanted to create a website allowing folks to locate their nearest swing district in the House of Representatives. From there, you’d be able to sign up to help flip these districts from red to blue in the 2018 congressional election. It would serve as a way for anyone, no matter where they live, to channel their energy and activism into an area where it could really make a difference. And they needed our (design) help!
