Moving Forward, Together
Canvassing Works!
Studies repeatedly prove that nothing turns out voters like personal contact. When we “knock doors” we generally talk to Democrats who are happy to see us. We work in pairs and we will train you. Here’s what some of the people who canvassed on Saturday, February 22 had to say about the experience:
“Come join us in our next canvass. It was a great day out talking to DEMS. The ones I talked with are mostly informed or they ask for information. A total POSITIVE EXPERIENCE. They are happy to see like-minded folks out and about, helping GET OUT THE VOTE!” – Mary Bell Lunsford
“I had a great time. Met a lot of good people. I am signing up for next week. I saw a quote on Facebook that went something like this: if you wonder what you would have done in Germany in 1939, just look at what you are doing today. I don’t want to look back and have regrets.” – Sharon Bumgarner
Election Night Watch Party
Join us as we gather to watch the Florida Presidential Primary results come in. We’ll also be reporting results from several local non-partisan municipal races where Democrats are running. And, it’s St. Patrick’s Day, so we are hoping for the luck ‘o the Irish!
We’ll be on a covered patio. There are space heaters, but dress for the weather!
