Ok hey there all! Most of my trip is gonna be ad-lib, crazy, chaos, on the go, winging it! Which I love! I want YOU the community/volunteers to help guide me throughout NY! Tell me where you think the best spots to canvas, post ads and flyers are!
Where you think Voteforbernie will be most effective. I’ll have my trusty tablet to help people find their local county board of elections, and check their registration. Absentee request forms/applications as well NY Reminder Cards/Flyers and some SWAG!
I’d love to sit down have some coffee or a slice with all of you! Talk politics, Bernie, voteforbernie, hear your ideas! All of it. If I have time of course. So without further adieu…
Here is my tentative schedule so you can meet up with me and help me volunteer and
