“Just because you don’t live in one of the ‘swing’ states doesn’t mean you have to sit this election out. We’re looking for 10,000 people to adopt a key battleground state voting district, or ‘precinct’. These volunteers will partner with local residents in that precinct to contact a few hundred voters, educate them on the issues and the candidates, and turn them out to vote. The Goal: 40 or more additional votes for Kerry per precinct, enough to tip the balance in this close a race. Using new online tools plus coordinated road trips and phone calling, we will help you focus your energy where it matters the most…
Precinct Partners will help volunteers on the ground by helping to contact a few hundred voters by phone and by mail, visiting the area in person where possible, and other activities. We’ll provide you with tools to make it easy, talking points, and help every step of the way. And as special partners in this project, we’ll give you the inside scoop on MoveOn’s activities as we enter this final push before the most important election in our lifetimes.
We estimate this work will take a few hours a week until October, and a little more after that. But the 40 or so voters that you help to turn out could be the ones that swing the 2004 election. ” (MoveOn PAC)
