Get Ready for our July 31st Day of Action!
Blanco County Democrats announce their JULY DAY OF ACTION! Please mark your calendars for Thursday, July 31st and help us reach out to our neighbors who have not voted in past election cycles.
Our Day of Action includes Deep Canvassing. This technique goes beyond calling and talking to people who answer the phone. These conversations last longer and genuinely try to reach folks and relate to their concerns, listen, and share thoughts current issues. Ultimately, we are trying to bridge the gap that is preventing non-voters from engaging in our electoral process.
There will be a 3 part training in preparation of our Day of Action. Please sign up for our Deep Canvass Trainings at the following links:
Next, please REGISTER for our Day of Action to make calls and help us move the needle here in Texas. Our field representative with Deep Canvass Institute says there no chance of Texas turning blue with urban areas alone, we need at least a 2.5% increase in Democratic Voters from rural areas to bring Texas around!
Volunteers will receive further information on when and how to make their calls by email in a week or so. Our Day of Action ends with a group effort from 7-8:30pm making calls together in Blanco, Texas.
