HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE CANVASS

• Fully charge your phone overnight & bring any batteries you might need 
• Download the MiniVan smartphone app from Apple or Google Play using Wifi (goes much quicker). We will use this app while Canvassing. If you do not have a smartphone, please let the trip organizers know, so the campaign preps a paper packet for you – targetmajoritynyc@gmail.com.
• Learn about Democrat Ashley Ehasz and her positions on key issues
• Practice our canvass script!

• Review Ashley’s tips & Talking Points

• Check out Kamala’s Talking Points!

• Look at the Commit to Vote Triple Card we’ll help voters fill out

• Review Talking Points for Project 2025 in PA (centrist), and progressive talking points nationally

• Listen to this 19-min PA Voter Registration training video (on the way is fine!)

• Open this google doc and take a screencap of the below QR code and link on your phone, so you can help voters check voter registration & register to vote: https://bit.ly/slvr 

• With the risk in these times of reactive R voters, we ask everyone to do a quick self-training with this de-escalation guide. 

• Maintain your own physical space, relaxed body language & calm tone.

• At the first sign of unpleasantness, thank them for their time & leave. 

• Never answer provocations–instead, you can reflect that you hear how strongly they feel about this & “you’ve given me a lot to think about.”
• If they make it hard to leave: Courteously but firmly disengage. You might say: “Thank you for sharing your ideas. I’m sorry, but I need to get going now.” Repeat if needed.

REMINDERS TO HAVE A GREAT DAY

• Save the ON THE GROUND organizer’s cell to your phone now to keep in touch the day of the canvass: Hope: 917-806-2599.
• Check the weather for our PA destination in the morning – don’t forget water, a sun hat, sunscreen, and an umbrella depending on the forecast.
• Bring your lunch and snacks (or pick up food before the kickoff starts)
• If needed, please make arrangements with your fellow car-riders, to stop at a deli before departing or on arrival, so you have lunch in hand before arriving at the launch site 
• When checking google or apple maps for nearby delis, note that some rural options may be closed on weekends – check the store hours or call
