Brothers and Sisters,
There are three major segments to each election cycle. Each segment presents it’s own opportunity to learn, appreciate challenges and overcome the impossible. You are receiving this e-mail because you volunteered with us in the past or because you’ve expressed interest in volunteering with us. We are in our Campaign stretch. The Primary IS the election. #J26OccupyNY7
1) Petitioning Process – 938 validated signatures of Dems in the District + safety numbers to beat challenges.
DONE – we turned in close to 3,000 signatures and none were invalidated.
2) Campaign/Field Operation – About 40,000 likely voters for the Democratic Primary/About 40 days to Knock for the 99%
That works out to an avg of 40 knocks a day for 25 volunteers.
We KNOW we can do this, it means volunteers are going to have to stand and deliver. Our plan is to focus on M-F
canvassing from 6-9pm and throw in some weekend work between events.
3) Get Out The Vote/GOTV – We’re in the process of developing an innovative game plan to make this happen – many
surprises in store and we are going to have a blast – #J26OccupyNY7. Bum Rush The Vote
This is where the rubber meets the road in terms of real organizing. Movement building happens in the streets talking to people face to face.
