We Are In the Final Stretch
We Need Volunteers!
How You Can Help
Literature Hand Out Near the Athens Board of Elections
This activity includes handing out the sample ballot and YES on Issue 1 to people in-line to EARLY VOTE. We are no longer trying to persuade voters, rather give resources to voters which they can take into the polling place.

Yard Signs
We have yard signs for all local candidates and YES on Issue 1 signs. We also have Harris/Walz yard signs (requesting a $5 donation). Our goal is to have signs visible throughout the county. If there is an area our signs are not visible, let us know. Or better yet come for signs! The Athens Dem office is open M-F from 1:00-5:00 pm. Saturday and Sunday Noon until 4:00 pm.
Canvassing
Door knocking with Democrats! We are talking to democrats to make sure they have a plan to vote. We want to make sure voters know their candidates, why to vote YES on Issue 1, and why are the Ohio Supreme Court Judges are so important to ensuring the intent of the Ohio Reproductive State Amendment. Help prepare voters for when they go to vote!

94th District Canvass & Phone Bank on Saturday, October 19 at 10:00 a.m.
There is a 94th district-specific canvass and phonebank launch Saturday, October 19th at 10 AM. Wenda Sheard, candidate for 94th District, has agreed to join us!
We have lots of turf left in The Plains, Lee Township, Glouster, and Rural Trimble Township. So let’s get some drivers and canvassers for the 94th District. Additionally, the Coordinated Campaign will be cutting some paper phone lists for Nelsonville.
Phone Banking
You can reach out to Dems from your home or from the Athens Dem office. Reach out to Mieke Riddlebarger at mriddlebarger@ohiodems.org.
Mail-In Ballot Follow Up
We are looking for volunteers to call voters who have requested a mail-in ballot but have not yet returned it. The week before the mail-in ballots are due we will follow up with those voters. Volunteers will be given telephone numbers for these voters, to remind them to return their mail-in ballots. Mail-in ballots must be postmarked by November 4, or hand-delivered to the Board of Elections by 7:30 PM on November 5, Election Day.
Please contact Doug Debrick at dgdebrick@gmail.com to volunteer or learn more.
