You Can Help Gloria Witt Win!

Posted on

There are many ways we can help Gloria win the Fifth District; we’re including ideas in each newsletter (for more, visit her How to Get Involved page):

Campaign flier of Gloria Witt (waist up) to the left and In white letters the words "Gloria Witt Virginia District 5". The flier has an orange background.

  • Talk to your friends and family about Gloria:
  • Share the “Gloria Witt for Congress” flier with a friend.
  • Tell people why it’s critical that they vote in EVERY election — our democracy depends on it!
  • Talk about why you’re supporting Gloria Witt for Congress on November 5. Early voting starts September 20.
  • Host a meet-and-greet to build community awareness and engagement.

Gloria will be at the following out-of-area events this weekend:

• 9/14-Appomattox Dems Flip the 5th, 3-5pm, Abbitt Park
• 9/15-Goochland County Ice Cream Social, 2-5pm, Goochland Rec Center
• 9/15-Powhatan Hot Dogs & Snacks, 4-6pm, New Greenbriar Church

Canvassing & Phone Banking with the Coordinated Campaign

Posted on

A person addresses the August 2024 meeting of Charlottesville Dems under a picnic shelter. People sit at picnic tables in open air. Witt for Congress and Harris-Walz signs are next to some tables.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…

Event Report: September 10 Debate Watch Party

Posted on

An energized crowd of about 75 turned out for a Debate Watch Party at Fry’s Spring Beach Club on Tuesday evening 9/10 (preceded by free cocktail reception, Josh and Minhee Throneburg made great drinks!)… and the partygoers more than got their money’s worth! Vice President Kamala Harris was magnificent and clearly won the debate; Trump’s face here pretty much says it all. A great night that gave yet another boost to Harris and down-ballot candidates. No wonder everyone in the crowd photo below was smiling!
