Hello Wonderful Writers!
Wow - you all blew through our first GOTV campaigns! Mid-way though September, we are adding two new races and anticipate more changes ahead as early voting begins. Please note that postcarding will end around October 20th so write those cards now to reach as many voters as we can before election day!
GOTV post carding differs from other campaigns, so please read the following information carefully!
GOTV scripts will provide election dates and resources plus encourage early voting, which is critical to Democratic Party success up and down the ballot. All campaigns will include a social pressure message proven to be the most effective in getting low-frequency voters to turn in their ballots. These are voters that can make the difference in close elections!
VERY IMPORTANT: Please note that all GOTV cards are not mailed immediately but instead should be held and mailed to arrive near to when ballots are available. This time period will be in late September to late October. Please note the exact mailing period on each campaign. It will vary by state.
