what do we know about getting out the vote?

I know personal contact matters

peer pressure works

impress on people that they are voters, that this is part of their identity

invite people to ask for whatever help will make their voting easier – child care, transportation, information about where/when to go and what they might need to bring

information about where/how to register, and help to do that

make it fun with get out the #vote parties, after vote parties, strategy parties, community parties (“political parties” but the fun kind)

what else?

Attended a session last night. Trying to get at least a handful of other people to do the same! One member of my professional network was onboard to try too! Hoping this catches on. (Sri also said he had talked to you that morning.)

Just downloaded SwipeBlue and found that 4 of my contacts are in PA - hadn't realized. Let's hope that more people find this app to reach out to voters in their own networks.

Have you ever spent any time with UniteHERE/the Culinary Union? this is real relational organizing in NV and PA, plus, in 2020, in GA.
