Election Day is fast approaching in Canada, and many other countries across the world. During the countdown, if you haven't finalized your GOTV strategy, or are still looking for something to increase voter turnout — these resources will set you apart from the crowd.
Here is a roundup of some of our top tips and best practices to running a successful GOTV program on NationBuilder:
- Your supporters are receiving emails from a lot of political groups and candidates. Segmenting your communications will help you engage voters in a more powerful way to get them to the polls.
- Now’s the time to lean on your volunteers by distributing leadership through well-appointed tasks
- A digital GOTV strategy is key to reaching supporters who don’t check their emails, don’t answer their phones, or have buildings you can’t get to.
- Back to the Basics: The typical grassroots methods of door-to-door canvassing, phone banking, and direct mail are all tactics you should employ during this phase.
Keep in mind that during the GOTV phase the name of the game is making sure every single one of your identified supporters actually turns up to the polls and votes for you. Now go get those votes!
