We need you to help turn Florida blue in 2022!
Canvassing
Please sign up to knock on doors of Democrats any or all weekends from now until Election Day — Monday, November 7, too! There are 7 shifts each weekend, so there is a convenient time for all.
We drive in pairs. Each pair has a phone with the Minivan Touch app (free from Apple or Google store) which shows the map of the territory, a list of the associated voters, and a script.
Sign up on Mobilize:

Assembling Door Hangers for Canvasses
Thursdays at 1:00 pm, starting October 21 — Stuff campaign literature in bags to leave on doorknobs — or with voters — during canvassing. You will work at the table outside Charlotte Dems HQ. (You can use the bathroom there.) Let Lorraine Moneypenny know if you’re coming by calling 914-374-4148.
Phone banking
In addition to the county phone banking run by our own Linda and Penelope, there is a state initiative to call inconsistent Democratic voters. To call those in Charlotte County from home any time, sign up here:
Poll Greeters.
For early voting from Oct 24th to Nov 6th and then on Election Day, Nov 8th, volunteers stand outside of the 150 foot limit at a polling location, answer voter’s questions and report any election interference happening outside of the polling location. There is minimal training required and schedules and locations are flexible. Contact Greg or Maria Metge. gmgha74@gmail.com or metgemaria@gmail.com
Election Night
Watch the election returns with fellow Democrats! The back room of Los Mariachis Bar & Grill at 3575 Tamiami Trail in Port Charlotte, directly across the street from our Charlotte Dems HQ, is reserved for us at 6:30 on Election Night! Come order some Mexican food and watch Florida turn blue together!
