Ways we can help get out the vote
WHITE DUDES FOR HARRIS
Progressive Victory hosts White Dudes for Harris organizing calls every Tuesday until Oct. 29 at 8 PM ET. These calls are opportunities to learn key organizing skills that are relevant to the campaign, learn about volunteer opportunities, and hear from guest speakers. Let’s sign up here. (h/t CFAA)
MICHIGAN ONE CAMPAIGN PHONE BANKS
It is essential that the Dems win Michigan. Michigan Dems’ Michigan One Campaign hosts virtual phone banks contacting Michigan voters to get out the vote. We can call from anywhere. Each shift begins with training; experienced phone bankers will be able to start calling immediately and don’t need to sit through the training. There are shifts Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays with training that begins at 2:00 PM ET and 5:00 PM ET. On Saturdays and Sundays they run their phone banks all day with training that begins at 9AM, 12PM, 3PM, and 6PM ET. Sign up for any & all shifts here. (h/t Amy Siskind)
ENHANCE STUDENT VOTING IN SWING STATES
Swingthevote.us provides information and assistance to college students that can help them counteract election suppression barriers in getting to vote. Let’s send any students we know in swing states this 1-minute video that explains how important their votes are and encourage them to check out this state and college-specific portal that will make voting as easy as possible.
TIPS FOR CANVASSERS
When we’re canvassing and a voter comes to the door and tells us they’re voting for Harris, let’s think of it as the beginning, not the end, of the conversation! Let’s ask them to volunteer; to urge their family and friends to vote for Democrats up and down the ballot; to put up a lawn sign; to vote early; and more. Let’s read “How to Talk to Democrats” from The Grassroots Connector and sharpen our canvassing skills.
WISCONSIN PHONEBANKS WITH FIELD TEAM SIX
We all know how central Wisconsin is to both Vice President Harris’ and Trump’s roads to the White House. We’re firing on all cylinders to make sure we get every voter we can to the polls – both likely voters and unlikely voters alike! Field Team Six is hosting virtual phonebanks both this Wednesday and next Wednesday to reach unregistered likely Democrats and get them on the voter rolls. We can sign up to join their efforts here.
