Red2Blue Candidate Recruitment Training — with Rural GroundGame

January 29 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm EST

We are kicking off our 2025 candidate recruitment work with Virginia’s Rural GroundGame. We will be joined by RGG’s Lynlee Thorne and Ian McNally, who will provide an overview of our goals and the state of the field. Then, we will split into breakout groups based on this project’s two types of work:

Online Research: Our online research involves identifying prospective 2025 candidates for the Virginia State Assembly and recording what we find in Google Sheets. Participants should be comfortable doing online research, communicating through Slack, and using Google Sheets. Both of the latter (Slack and Sheets) are easy to learn and we’ll teach you!

Candidate Recruitment Calls: Volunteers also can do calls for initial outreach, passing along to the RGG team any prospects open to being candidates. Callers should be comfortable with cold outreach (but these are warm calls to friendly Democrats) and with recording notes in Google Sheets.

Sign up here now! To help us plan for the session, please answer the ‘drop-down’ question (under your zip code in the Mobilize Sign-Up link) showing “I would like to help by…”
