Neighborhood Voter Contact Program
A neighborhood voter contact program is just that - a plan implemented by a campaign, organization, or grassroots group to register voters, identify supporters, recruit volunteers and get out the vote. However, a good precinct voter contact program utilizes local talent from specific communities at the precinct level to surface new leadership, develop a long-term infrastructure, and build the base. Well organized, a precinct voter contact program also saves your campaign precious resources - time, money, and people - by spreading the responsibilities for contacting voters over many volunteer leaders responsible for small universes and centralizing that information at the campaign level. In this way, your campaign is able to have the necessary conversations with voters while also being better connected to local issues and intelligence through your precinct leaders.

Last month we held our third Camp Wellstone in the state of Idaho, a reliably red state since its statehood. During our organizational strategic planning last summer, the mission "to boldly go where other progressive training organizations don't go" easily became one of our priorities. We affectionately refer to this point as, "more Idahos."
