Voter Outreach and Field Operations
Elections are won on the ground. Coordinate tightly with District Teams from the Field Manual — they are your army. Focus on high-propensity primary voters and persuadables in the general.
Key Tactics
- Canvassing: Door-to-door with pledge-focused scripts. Goal: 50,000+ doors in primary.
- Phone/Text Banking: Use volunteer lists and data from District Teams.
- Events: Town halls, worker forums, house parties — make them about the issues in the book.
- Relational Organizing: Supporters contact their own networks.
