Get Out the Vote for Midterms
Indivisible SF works with other Indivisible groups and allied organizations such as Democracy Action, Swing Left and Sister District to support efforts to elect progressives in red and purple districts.
Just because we are in a Blue district doesn't mean that there's nothing we can do to help flip Congress in the the upcoming mid-term elections.
Here are four ways that you can help:
1. Phone banking and text banking. After canvassing, the most effective way to confirm or persuade a vote is on the phone. Text banking is a fun, low-stress way to reach hundreds of people in a very short amount of time — and it works! We offer both at the Indivisible SF General Meeting on Sundays, but there are also opportunities though our allied groups throughout the week.
2. Write postcards. Postcarding is a low-key, fun and personal way to encourage voters in other districts.
3. Join a canvassing event. Indivisible SF is helping canvass for Josh Harder in CA District 10 as well as Props 10 and C.
4. Read Indivisible National’s electoral guides: Practical Guide to Winning Elections and Voter Registration Guide (they’re like Indivisible Guide 2.0 and 3.0 for reaching and registering voters, respectively!).
5. Monitor the polls. Volunteer to be a poll monitor on November 6 with Help Protect the Vote.
