Congressman Josh Harder is once again up for re-election - this time in a newly drawn district. Camille Torres, Josh's Campaign Manager, will join us to give direct insight into his challenges in this election cycle.
Ever wonder what impact phone and text banking, postcarding and door knocking have on actual voting outcomes? We will have our own Larry Litvak tell us about the latest objective research on the impact of various voter engagement strategies on voting behavior.
From Airlift, Chris Lydon will tell us about what CA, NV, and AZ grassroots groups are doing as grantees of Airlift.fund. We will learn about how their grassroots’ work synergizes with all the other electoral actions we are taking.
Plus hear what MVCAN has been up to and what’s coming up on the calendar!
