A woman standing in her front doorway is talking with another woman who has come by to canvass her neighborhood.There’s a big need for canvassers this election season.

Canvassers leave the Coordinated Campaign office with names and literature:

  • Every Saturday: 10 am, 1pm, and 4pm

Please pick up canvassing sheets with names and addresses and campaign literature at the office:

We’re using the space for canvassing and other activities related to electing on November 5:

  1. Gloria Witt for the Fifth District congressional seat now occupied by Bob Good (Good lost the Republican primary to another MAGA extremist more loyal to Trump than Good was)
  2. Senator Tim Kaine to retain his seat by defeating yet another Republican MAGA extremist Hung Cao (e.g. anti-abortion, pardons for January 6 insurrectionists, etc.)
  3. Kamala Harris as our first female President!!!
