Knock Doors. Increase Turnout.

Some neighbors need a reminder that the election is right around the corner. Help increase turnout by up to 4 percentage points by knocking on the doors of infrequent voters who are most likely to vote for Democrats. 

 

Never canvassed before? We will give you the training & tools to succeed and can usually pair you with a buddy. 

 

Can’t knock? Drivers are needed to help us get to more doors. Sign up for any canvass below and get paired with a door knocker. 

 

Knock doors with the PA Dems on Saturdays and Sundays to talk to voters about Governor Shapiro, Lt. Gov. Austin Davis, Congressman Chris Deluzio, and our PA House candidates, Rob, Sydney, and Jake Young.

 

Sign up to let our PA Dems’ field organizer, Adrian, know to expect you, or email aandriessens@padems.org to knock doors on your own time!

 

Sydney Speicher is knocking doors in Beaver County at 10 am on October 11, 24, 31. Sign up here. 

 

Rob Matzie’s volunteers will be knocking doors every Tuesday and Saturday until the election. Join by signing up to receive the meeting location.

 

Finally, everyone can talk to their friends and neighbors about the importance of making a plan to vote. YOU can make a difference.

Celebrating the Democracy Warriors

Our Democracy Warriors celebrated their one year anniversary of rallying every Friday through extreme heat, cold, snow, and rain. Only bad air quality from the wild fire smoke stopped them in the last year.


You are invited to join them as they begin their second year of letting their neighbors know how they feel every Friday from 4 – 5 pm at our Roadside Rally.


Sign up to receive the location of the rally and any necessary updates.


They are also planning a No Kings-Vote Early Rally on Saturday, October 17th at the Courthouse in Beaver. Sign up so they can know how many people to expect and so you can receive email updates.

Selma: The Bridge to the Ballot

Join us for a powerful evening on Wednesday, October 14th, at the CCBC Dome on 1 Campus Drive in Monaca.


We are sponsoring a screening of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s documentary Selma: The Bridge to the Ballot.


After the movie, there will be voter registration and education and a Q&A with elected officials.


Doors open at 5 pm. The program begins at 5:30 pm. 


Reserve a spot here. 


We want to thank Leanne, one of our Beaver Falls Committeewoman, for organizing the event and the Beaver Lawrence Central Labor Council for endorsing it.
