It’s an E-Day GOTV Swarm

Our office was completely packed for E-Day orientation this week, as dozens of eager volunteers came in to get trained and scheduled to get out the vote on Tuesday.

They ranged in age from 17 years old to over 50. We gave them all a t-shirt and the list of canvasser rules and rights, and got them scheduled for either a whole-day or half-day shift.

IF YOU MISSED THE ORIENTATION… Saturday, Nov. 1st at 1pm in our office you can still get trained and scheduled to push those voters out the door! Call 412-362-7927 with questions.

A day in the life of the League

The League:  Hot in the Streets!

Saturday October 4th was a great day for the PA League! We had so many wonderful volunteers wake up early to go canvassing with us and the Steelworkers in Penn Hills and North Versailles to make an impact on the upcoming election.

Akil Esoon registered Mabel Rose, who is 101 years old and living in Penn Hills.

It was extra exciting because the PA League recently has been getting national recognition for our efforts. On Saturday, CNN brought their film crews out to North Versailles to capture the excitement and the hard work that we have all been doing to reach out to those new and unlikely voters.

You can catch the footage on CNN American Morning showing Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday this week!

Want to be a part of the excitement? Come join us to help make a difference in this year’s election and beyond!
