The grassroots stuff works, people. We have to work precinct! |
|
Folks, we just had a primary runoff here. We had two candidates for Senator in the runoff. One was a real candidate and one was a joke non-candidate idiot nimrod who ran on the basis of his name alone. I did the basic voter contact work for my precinct: email, phone call, and postcard. My precinct heard me and voted 100% for the real candidate.
One. Hundred. Percent.
Furthermore I recognized 90% of the people that came in and voted today due to my precinct work.
People, we have to take the time to get out in our neighborhoods. Do door to door, do dialog, go to functions in our neighborhood, our neighborhood association, our PTA, whatever is active in our neighborhood, we have to take time to make that person to person contact and have those conversations.
Because it works.

3. Even better than working from walk lists, don't miss anybody work the 3Bs |
|
The walk lists are very incomplete information that have you skipping lots of houses. Work the 3Bs, bus stops (republicans do not ride the bus) barber shops and beauty parlors.
For Paul Hackett I staked out the bus stop that went to the African American neighborhoods in that district. I also staked out a Dollar Store for 4 hrs., 3 days before the election. I also like to paint voting messages on my station wagon windows with white shoe polish and drive arounbd honking and waving right before an election.
