(3,515 posts)My neighbors across the street voted Peace and Freedom and I do not know what all for years. Reaching out beyond party lines on issues and bringing people to vote for Democrats can work. The tax bill and Trump's rudeness are good playing cards for Democrats this year.
You win elections by bringing in voters who might not have voted for your party in the past. It is especially important to bring in young voters.'
Another way you can reach out is by putting up a table at events like the farmers' market and registering and talking to voters there. You will talk to Republicans, Independents and Democrats. Only put charming, patient people at tables. It's a great way to reach out to voters who may not be registered as Democrats. Lots of women goo to farmers' markets. Smile. Be friendly. Don't worry too much about the politics or persuasion. Make a good, warm and friendly, welcoming impression. That is what wakes voters up and allows them to check into the Democratic candidates at home after they meet you. If they like you, they will be open to voting for your candidate.
Do this also on college campuses and at other events.
