GDCC Voter Outreach Program

February 4, 2012
The Mass. Democratic Party has developed a new postcard initiative that involves reaching out to Democrats who don't vote in every election as well as unenrolled individuals who have voted in Democratic primaries. The GDCC is enthusiastically participating in this initiative and is seeking volunteers to help mail postcards and visit homes of likely voters. We are eager to learn from the first experience and repeat the effort throughout this election year.
VoteBuilder, the powerful new database developed by the State Party, will be used to create address lists and maps for volunteers ( 3,000 perspective Gloucester voters have already been identified!!). By targeting smaller groups of these individuals we can be very effective, BUT, we need volunteers.
The time commitment is minimal. Saturday morning, Feb. 4 at 10:00am we will meet at the Gloucester Community Cinema (21 Main St.) to have a short training session, pick up materials, and visit selected neighborhoods in pairs to knock on doors.
If you would like to participate in any way (even if you can't make it on the 4th), please call Karen Bell ( 978-283-3209 ) or e-mail her at knevabell@gmail.com
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!
