Canvassing in WA state - is it worth it since it's after Super Tuesday?

[911cartoon]

if WA means anything.. I'll do my best.. WA voting is AFTER super tuesday right? if it means anything I WILL GET OUT THE VOTE... but I need slimjims .. can someone send me 100 or so to go door to door in my precinct? Any suggestions on what to say? I will be doing this alone on foot. :)

Yes it will matter. If you only need 100 contact your State office or even national HQ, they will probably give you them free.

Are there any meetup groups in your area?

[hueylong]

Yes!!! This thing is going ALL THE WAY to the convention.

We need all the help in every state.

What part of WA are you from?

[stewie3128]

Yes it will matter, especially if we have a respectable showing on Feb. 5th. How stupid would you feel if we won a few states on Super Tuesday and there you were sitting on top of all these people who would've voted for Ron Paul if they'd heard of him sooner?

Get one of them to bring you some slimjims.

What part of Washington? I'm in Seattle and our group has been going at it. The way I see it is if he pulls in reasonable numbers on ST then we will become very important for the campaign as we'll be one of the last of the bigger states left.

[Benaiah]

Yes, because the majority of the houses that you knock on know somebody who lives in a Super Tuesday state. If you convert somebody to Paul, they will get on the phone and convert others.

holy crap I should get on this right away then.... I need info packets!! DVDS!!

This r3V0Lution is long term. This first phase - getting Dr Paul elected as President - needs to be taken right up to November 4. ANY positive effort helps to that end, regardless of these primary distractions. Work with the expectation that he WILL be there on Nov 4, either as one of two, or one of three (it doesn't matter which, as he would take either case).

is there some kind of precinct locater online?

is there some kind of precinct locater online?

If you're registered to vote just google it. They ask for your name and birthday OR address registered on your voter card. It will tell you. Then after you sign up as precinct leader you can claim your precinct.

What part of WA State?

We have meetups here at my store every thursday, and you can always come down and get slim-jims, pins, etc. I'm in Vancouver, if you're anywhere near please let me know and we can get you into the fold :)

Thanks!

I'm in Gig Harbor, PM me with your location. I'm a Prescient Captain and doing it on very low funds, but we can figure something out.

Cartoon, there is a lot you can do. get ready to go to the R caucus on the 9th and bring some neighbors and friends. have your registration card with you.

Recruit friends and neighbors in other parts of the state to do the same. Have them get two friends, and so on.... This is a fairly simple way to get delegates to the county conventions, then on to the state (and national)

And since the democratic primary doesn't count for anything, get all of your friends that may think they are democrats to go to the polls and vote for Ron.

PM me if you have any questions
