BUT… you can also do some Saturday canvassing too, to practice up and show him your “A” game (or do Saturday if you can’t make Sunday!):

The new office address again is:
Charlottesville Democratic Coordinated Office
1410 Incarnation Dr., Ste. 203

Either day, check to weather to see if you’ll want to bring water, sun lotion, water, a hat, and maybe some water…

Our local party will also use the space for canvassing and other activities related to getting Gloria Witt elected on Nov. 5 for the Fifth District House of Representatives seat currently held by Bob Good.

Sen. Tim Kaine also has an opponent, another Republican MAGA extremist, Hung Cao (e.g. anti-abortion, pardons for January 6 insurrectionists, etc.).

Kickoff for Cville Dems GOTV Thursdays Postponed until July 11

Posted on

Poster using a wide variety of different letter and background colors used with the words "Turn out the Vote Thursdays, Phone bank, Have a Taco, write postcards to voters"We’ll postpone our kickoff of Get Out the Vote (GOTV) Thursdays at Ix Park until Thursday, July 11, 5-7pm.

Because the Coordinated Campaign will be having their Office Opening and Debate Watch Party on Thursday, June 27, 7:30 to 11:00 pm (see above), and because the following Thursday is the Fourth of July, we decided to postpone.

Hopefully, we will be meeting every Thursday thereafter through Thursday, Oct. 31.  On July 11, we will be all set to go with canvassing, phone banks, text banks, and postcard writing.  Please plan to join us on the lawn outside of Brazos Tacos on July 11. Since the picnic bench can fill up fairly quickly, please bring a blanket or chair to sit on the grass.

Postcard writing is an expensive undertaking!  If you can contribute to the cost of printing and stamps, please do so by going to our Act Blue Page and clicking on postcards and stamps:  https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/page/charlottesville-democratic-committee-1

In addition to talking about our activities for the upcoming election, we’ll have representatives from Sin Barreras, an advocacy organization which works with the Latino Community. AND we will serve Mexican popsicles from La Flor Michoacana, which is a good reason to come in itself!

This is an open meeting so please invite friends.
