Canvassing & Phone Banking with the Coordinated Campaign
In addition to “Turn Out the Vote Thursdays” at Ix, canvassing and/or phone banking with the Coordinated Campaign are also great ways to help get Kamala, Tim W., Tim K., and Gloria elected!
- Saturday Canvassing: 10am, 1pm, and 4pm
- Sunday Canvassing: 1pm and 4pm
The field team at the coordinated Harris/Kaine/Witt office will train you and then (on your already fully-charged cell phone!) set you up with a great list of doors to knock, and give you a paper map and candidate literature to pass out. To get to the doors more quickly, download the MiniVAN app to your phone and create an ActionID in the app before you arrive for your shift.
- Saturday and Sunday Phone Banking: 1pm
- Tuesday Phone Banking: 5:30pm
Canvassers and phone bankers should come to the Coordinated Campaign’s office at 1410 Incarnation Drive, Suite 203. It’s best to sign up in advance at https://www.mobilize.us/timkaine.
Let’s keep the huge national momentum going here! Volunteers are signing up and working at record rates for the Dems, and we need everyone’s assistance.
Canvassing is…
- A lovely walk with a purpose
- Getting to know Charlottesville
- Enjoying your neighbors
- Helping good candidates like Gloria Witt to win
- Being a part of American history
- Knowing you’re doing important work.
For training and materials go to:
Charlottesville Democratic Coordinated Campaign Office
1410 Incarnation Dr., Suite 203
Charlottesville, VA 22901
Canvassers leave from there:
- Every Saturday: 10am, 1pm, and 4pm
- Every Sunday: 1pm and 4pm
The field team at the Coordinated Campaign office, will train you, set you up with a great list of doors to knock, all on your cell phone (which you charged up before coming!), and give you a paper map and candidate literature. To get to the doors more quickly, retrieve your Apple ID before you go, which you’ll need in order to download the MiniVan app.

Get to know Gloria Witt, Our Fifth District Candidate
Things to know about Gloria:
- She grew up working on her family’s farm in Amherst, VA, and learned to drive a tractor at age 14. Her family encouraged her to pursue higher education.
- After saving her farming money and buying a car for transportation, she went to college, with the encouragement of her family.
- She earned a degree in Communications and Economics from Randolph College.
- Gloria had a 32-year career with global energy company, Framatome, in Lynchburg.
- She is using her time and energy during retirement to help others through NAACP and the Central Virginia Academy for Nonprofit Excellence.
- She decided to run for office because she she could not stand by and watch rights trampled for women, minorities, and the LGBTQA community, and the disintegration of education and voters’ rights. These problems are perpetruated by our current 5th District Rep. Bob Good and supported by John McGuire, Trump’s latest hand-picked Republican candidate in the 5th District.
Help Gloria’s campaign by canvassing, phoning, and donating so she can communicate with voters!
