Yesterday, Great Slate candidate Greg Edwards spoke to us very candidly about what it will take to win his primary in the Lehigh Valley this Maypic.twitter.com/rG5zomDJDr

People will vote for Edwards because he is a phenomenal candidate. You can't turn out voters for a dud. But people will only find out about his awesomeness if we can get the word out, and doing that takes feet on the ground. Those feet deserve a living wage for their work.
If we do nothing, Morganelli wins this primary—a ferociously anti-immigrant former prosecutor. So we're doing something. Every $75 you give Edwards is 10 more front porches he can reach.

And here is a flavor of what knocking doors for Edwards looks like. The guy I went canvassing with works a night shift, and sacrificed a night of sleep to do it, back when the district was still "hopelessly red". People are so hungry for change.https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/942952520770621440 …
You're absolutely correct. We've a referendum going on here in Ireland (to legalise abortion) and we're out knocking on doors all the time. Nothing works like talking to people face to face. It's hard work and the organisation is a killer. You can get at up to 20k with volunteers
Getting beyond 20k takes IT, GIS, massive print runs, tons of coordination, and is literally a full time job (or three). Without donations, politics is the domain of the independently wealthy
