Hey, Team AZ!
AWESOME EVENT ALERT: this Thursday, October 31,VP Harris is hosting a Get-Out-The-Vote rally in Phoenix! She’ll be joined by special musical guest Los Tigres del Norte– RSVP here to get updates. There’s limited capacity at this event so make sure you sign up ASAP!!
Also, check out these canvassing and paid volunteer opportunities courtesy of Seed the Vote and Unite Here:
Seed the Vote is calling for more volunteers to canvass in Maricopa County, Arizona. They will pay for housing and transportation costs for anyone who needs financial assistance. Sign up here.
Unite Here is also offering paid canvassing jobs to those who are willing. For more information, call or text Seth Chazin at 510-507-8100.
Getting out the vote in Arizona is critical for the presidential race, Ruben Gallego's Senate race, Amish Shah's race for Congress in AZ CD-1, the abortion access initiative, and to flip the AZ state House and Senate from red to blue. Please go if you can, even if it is just for a couple of days.
In other volunteering news, you can:
Phonebank with the AZ Dems and the Harris-Walz campaign in support of Dems up and down the ballot here.
Fill out this form to become a voter protection volunteer with the AZ Dems (they really need more Spanish speakers on their team)! They’ll reach out with details and training after you sign up.
That’s all for now. Thank you so much, and keep up the good work! The end is in sight!

Action step for folks here - We must help get more Democratic voters to the polls in swing states! Let’s support those tireless folks who are door-knocking, phone banking, & text banking till - and including - Election day! But how are those likely Blue voters located?
Field Team 6 is the only organization that identifies likely Democrats, gets them to register, then nudges them to vote. Their approach gains new Democratic votes for only $2.24 for 1 new vote - a fraction of other organizations’ cost-per-vote. But they need names, addresses, and phone numbers of who to approach.
Democrat Janet Protasiewicz was elected to the Wisconsin Supreme Court in August 2023 - as a direct result of Field Team 6’s outreach.
Even now, there are a dozen states where you can still register to vote - some even on election day. And in any swing state, volunteers can still go door knocking, phone banking, & text banking. As little as 10 or 20 votes per precinct can enable Democrats to win.
Join me in donating at https://www.fieldteam6.org/ Their research identifies the people who doorknockers and phone bankers need to approach.
To check out Field Team 6’s impact, see https://www.fieldteam6.org/_files/ugd/c03fe4_ca47cde71737499492a602eb46bf0aba.pdf - They have a very impressive track record of getting more people to vote Democratic.
Who will help? Can I see a show of hands? (I’m too tired to go door-knocking - I’ve sent out 500 postcards in the past several weeks.)
