WALKING & KNOCKING for DEMOCRACY!

• We will be knocking on doors to get out the vote. It’s the best way, on the best day!

• Everyone going out today gets a map and walklist. That’s your “TURF.”

• Each turf is for a PAIR of Trick-or-Voters.

• You can choose to walk separately (for example, on different sides of the street), or walk together.

• Stay on your turf so you don’t overlap other Trick or Voters.

WALKING & KNOCKING for DEMOCRACY!

• There are three kinds of turf–RED: lots of apartment buildings

–YELLOW: a mix of apartments and houses

–GREEN: mostly houses

GREEN &

• If you’re on a green or yellow team, you’ll get a map that highlights your assigned turf.

• You will also get a walk-list of voters who HAVEN’T YET VOTED (as of Thursday). Focus on knocking on those doors.

• Each turf is for two people, and contains between 100 and 200 doors.

YELLOW TURF

YELLOW TURF

• Yellow turf includes both houses and apartments.

• Knock on doors until you get to an apartment complex. If it’s locked, try your best to get in!

YELLOW TURF

RED TURF• If you are on a RED team, you will have a map of APARTMENT BUILDINGS (not houses) that are assigned to you.

• Each pair of Trick or Voters will be assigned between 1 and 5 apartment buildings.

• You will also get a list of registered voters in each building. (NOTE: Unlike green & yellow turf, your turf will NOT tell you whether people have voted in this election.)

• Some buildings have openers. Some do not. If you have an opener, please don’t share their name with anyone else in the building.

• If your turf is mostly students, you will have student-specific voter guides to leave for people.

• Be subtle, polite, and persistent, like a ninja.
