Canvas for VA House Delegate Kathleen Murphy

Join volunteers from Virginia, Maryland and DC as we canvas for Kathleen Murphy ahead of the crucial House Delegate election in November. Each election, this delegate seat is decided by a couple of hundred votes, so every vote counts! This is also Barbara Comstock's former House Delegate seat and each year she puts a lot of energy into taking it back.
Winning (and preserving) Democratic seats in the Virginia House will be a crucial first step towards retaking the House in 2018. It's also important that we have a strong showing this November, so that Democrats can undo the severe gerrymandering put in place by the Republicans.
Most of our volunteers have never canvassed before - but it's easy to get started. We'll give you some quick training and teach you everything you need to know before you head out. You will be visiting Democratic friendly homes and verifying that the people on your list are planning to vote for Kathleen Murphy this November.
