Canvassing

Volunteers should meet at Democratic headquarters at 1 pm.

We will spend the afternoon canvassing for state judge positions, specifically for the NC Court of Appeals and the NC Supreme Court.

No experience necessary! We'll provide on-site training on this specific script and type of canvass. You will need a smart phone to access MiniVAN, the canvassing application we use. Please download this application from the App Store or Google Play before coming to the canvass.

Democrats are out-numbered in both courts; and these judges are the last line of defense against Republicans who continue to enact legislation that is self-serving, divisive, and does nothing to improve the lives of ordinary North Carolinians.

Please RSVP at https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/797433/
