As soon as we know who the Democratic 5th District candidate will be, Get Out the Vote Thursdays will resume on Thursday, June 27 at IX Park. We’ll then meet every Thursday to canvass, phone bank, text bank (new for us), and/or write postcards. We’ll be reaching out to specific potential voters we identify in the City of Cville and the 5th District, and also coordinating with the campaigns to help them reach their targeted individuals. Together we can reach out to thousands of registered voters and turn them into actual Democratic votes this November!
We hope you’ll join us!
In the meantime, if your fingers are itching to start writing postcards, there are two groups (unaffiliated with the Cville Dems) with earlier meetup times:
- Mondays from 10-12 at the Dunlora Club House; for more information, contact Mary Farrell at 703-655-3867 or wmekmf118@gmail.com.
- Donna Shaunessey has organized a Postcards and Pastry meeting Friday May 24, 1-3pm; for details contact shaunesey@hotmail.com.
Voter registration efforts are already going strong. If you’d like to participate, please contact Suzanne (suzemichels@gmail.com) if you know of a local event or location ripe for our voter registration and/or rights restoration efforts or if you’d like to join the voter registration team!
