More About Canvassing: Canvassing is the most effective method of introducing a candidate to voters. Basically, it is knocking on doors of voters, giving them a flyer, and saying a few short words about Janet. Most contacts are quite short, but when voters later get mail, or here an ad about the candidate, they are more likely to take note because they remember that someone came by the house. The goal is not to convert everyone, but just to introduce the candidate, and find those who already support the campaign. The typical contact goes like this. "Hi, My name is Mary. I'm just talking to your neighbors today and leaving a little information about my friend Janet Cowell, who is running for State Senate. You cast your vote on November 2 and I'm out here today letting folks know about Janet because she has been quite responsive to me as a City Councilor. If you have any questions, just give a call or check out our web site. Thanks for your time." If folks appear supportive, you will want to ask if they would like a yard sign, and make note. Instead of knocking on every door, we use walk lists and knock only on doors of eligible voters to be more efficient with our time. Once you get started, you will find that canvassing is a fun and rewarding experience. Call Mary if you can make some calls this week. (919) 413-4417 Please help our Yard Sign Team as we staple signs together and then distribute them to residences and to major roads. Contact Paul Shannon if you can help out.
