Democracy North Carolina has been fighting for fair representation since we started 25 years ago! We know that politicians draw lines to dilute the power of Black and Brown voters. Join us on our field campaign to take our message house to house, phone to phone. Thanks to YOUR hard work, redistrcting will be an election issue in 2018!
We will show our legislators that their consitutents want fair maps. Our hashtag is #FairMapsNC and #WeAreDemocracy
Join us for our #FairMapsNC Redistricting Canvass on Saturday, November 18 at 12 pm in Matthews.
Here is our schedule for the day:
- 12:00 – 1:00 PM – Canvass and Redistricting Training (Snacks and Water Provided)
- 1:00 – 4:00 PM – Canvass in pairs (Bring a friend! If you don’t, we will pair you up. No worries!)
- 4:00 – 4:30 PM – Material Turn-in and Debrief
Don’t forget to take care of yourself as needed (bathroom, sunscreen, etc.). We will have water. It may be a good idea to have a small bag to carry sunscreen and water because your hands will be full with a clipboard and materials. Wear comfortable shoes/clothes and DON’T FORGET: No partisan gear!
