Eyes on the Prize, not the Polls!

Long-time Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg was on MSNBC the other night saying the polls this year (especially 538) are understating how well Dems are doing, and that early voting (which is very encouraging) is a better indicator.
Victor Shi, iGenpolitics Strategy Director, says the same thing.
In any case, we should ignore polls and just focus on turning out the vote these last few crucial days!

We’ll provide the info that you’d need (it’s not hard!), please email us at cvilledemschair@gmail.org if you might be able to help with this very important final opportunity to influence people who will be voting in 20 seconds!

  • Wednesdays: Virtual Phone Bank (6:30-8:30pm)
  • Thursdays: “Turn Out the Vote Thursdays” (4:30-6:30pm)
  • Thursdays: Virtual Phone Bank (6:30-8:30pm) led by J4VA & Generation Ratify Virginia
  • Saturdays: Canvassing in Charlottesville (10am-Noon, 1-3pm) — meet at Josh’s Pantops office at 302 Hickman Rd. in the parking lot at the back of the building, where the office entrance is! Before you arrive, it’s a big time saver if you download the “Minivan” app we use to take down and input our canvassing data! It also helps if you sign up in advance
  • Sundays: Canvassing in Charlottesville (1-3pm, see Saturday above for details)

Any time: contact Josh for Virginia’s Kelsey Cowger if you might be willing to write a Letter to the Editor (Daily Progress) highlighting some aspect of why Josh is good for our District.
