About canvassing

Canvassing—going door to door in person to talk to people—is by far the most impactful way to engage and turn out voters. We always need more volunteers to canvass, including Spanish speakers.

As a canvasser, you will receive training, materials about the candidate, and important talking points. You will knock on doors of likely Democratic voters, introduce yourself briefly, and then listen to the voters and their concerns. You do not need to be an expert on a given candidate or his/her policies. You can partner with another volunteer if you wish. Voters may simply need some additional information or reminders of the importance of the election, and many will be welcoming and grateful for your efforts.

Your very presence is powerful. It conveys to the voter that their vote and voice matters. It also conveys the strength of your commitment to Democratic candidates, values, and policies, and to the urgency of a Democratic win. Many canvassers describe the experience as uplifting and meaningful.
