Beto's Powered By People Organization Expands Scope in Texas
"Powered By People Expands Organizing Efforts Statewide, Announces Record Grassroots Outreach and Voter Registration Numbers
Beto O’Rourke announced today that Powered By People will expand its grassroots organizing and outreach efforts statewide—not only working in competitive State House districts but also registering and engaging voters in every single one of the 254 counties of Texas. The newly expanded effort to call and text every Democrat across Texas while leading the largest voter turnout program in the state’s history follows historic organizing work.
“Thanks to the thousands of volunteers who have stepped up, we have the ability to call and text every Democrat across Texas,” said O’Rourke. “That means that in the midst of this pandemic, when our candidates are unable to knock on doors, hold rallies and town hall meetings and are totally dependent on phone-to-phone field work, Texas Democratic candidates will have the benefit of millions of voter contact phone calls made on their behalf.”
Powered By People’s growing ranks of volunteers have made more than 1.2 million total phone calls and sent 4 million texts to voters across Texas in the past 14 days alone. With Texas and its 38 electoral college votes clearly positioned as the biggest battleground state in the nation, energized phone bank volunteers made 316,000 phone calls in one night alone this week."
