GET OUT THE VOTE - Organized precinct work in targeted areas of California cities for the purpose of increasing the number of voters who supported the candidates or state propositions endorsed by the UFW. Thousands of farmworkers, under the direction of UFW organizers, participated in “Get Out The Vote” election campaigns.
Get Out The Vote involves phone banking, door-to-door canvassing, handing out leaflets, direct mail, email and driving people to the polls to get as many people as possible to vote. Begins the last three to four weeks before Election Day, becoming intense during the final week.
