Harris' campaign is transforming big crowds into volunteers on the ground in key swing states

(NBC News) WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign is intently focused on making sure the burst of enthusiasm after her rapid ascent to the Democratic presidential nomination is organized into a sustained campaign that will mobilize an army of volunteers ahead of November.

In the last week, as Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, crisscrossed the country speaking to packed rallies with thousands of voters, the campaign has also been hard at work signing up volunteers at those events in an effort to ensure victory.

Last week in Nevada, 1,000 of the 5,010 volunteer sign-ups were for the next day to join a series of weekly events the campaign holds on Sundays, a campaign official said. The campaign official said the burst of sign-ups made Sunday the biggest day yet for the weekly series. For comparison, the official said, attendance at Sunday’s events was 669% over attendance at the previous one, which was held July 7, before President Joe Biden dropped out.

In Wisconsin, the campaign had 13,000 conversations with voters over the weekend, and it got more than 1,100 volunteer sign-ups at a rally in Detroit to volunteer, the official said. .................(more)

1. And we need people and troops in elections centers...

where Republicans plan to steal the election.

Make them count the vote and certify it.

It is the law.

2. We need Harris campaigning everywhere

The mood is right to lift all boats across the country. Even if we don't flip every state we make progress. Look at Texas.

3. Volunteers help people register to vote

and encourage them to do so.

That's how we beat them: sheer, overwhelming numbers of repudiation.

4. That's great! Obama's campaign did this in 2008

Here's hoping David Plouffe has enough time to reimplement the famous Obama ground game.
