BECOME A PASCO DEC "ACTIVIST"
Perhaps you are unable to attend regular DEC meetings and thereby become a full-member with Precinct Captain responsibilities.
But you may still have a sense of "wanting to do something," especially as we get closer to the next Election Cycle. It could be helping with mailings, or driving campaign persons to Precincts , or one of the following possibilities:
1) Perhaps join a phone bank to contact voters and let them know where the Democratic Party stands on the issues. Phone banks and candidates usually provide scripts for you to read and a list of voters to call. Always be courteous and upbeat when you talk to people over the phone, and be sure and thank them for their time.
2) Participate in a registry booth at public events and get-togethers. Like other political parties, the Democrats set up booths at street gatherings and public thoroughfares to register voters or to speak about certain issues. You can take an afternoon to help register new voters or pass out leaflets.
3) Distribute campaign signs. During every election, loyal voters post signs advocating candidates they like or measures which they support or oppose. You can help distribute them or post them on the lawns of those who request them. You may also place one in your own yard.
4) Write letters to newspaper editors and to Representatives in Congress expressing Democratic views. A letter-writing campaign is one of the most effective ways to make your voice heard, and the Democratic party can help you coordinate your letter with others if you so desire (see Resources below).
5) Drive people to their polling places so that they can vote. Registered Democrats who don't have automobiles or ready access to public transportation will need rides to get to the polls on election day. If you have a car, you can volunteer to give them a lift and help them make sure that their votes are counted.
6) Do you speak languages other than English? If so after you can be of great help as we reach out to Latinos and Hispanic voters, for example.
7) Or can you help in any of these? If so please note in the AREAS OF INTEREST IN THE FORM BELOW. And thanks!!
