21. An organized voter registration drive by the Bernie camp would be great.

So far to my knowledge there is not a coordinated effort like this.

I am thinking this may be my area of focus again also.

When it comes to registering voters one needs to know the local laws as to what is and what isn't allowed.

Many years ago in South Dakota I was part of a coordinated voter registration drive with the local Democratic party. We were allowed to state our affiliation but you had to be open to registering voters for any party. Most people signed up as Democrats but some didn't.

Here is a link to some tips & information from the league of Women's Voters on starting a voter registration drive:

(There is a link on the page to find state guidelines.)

If you need any help find information I'd be more than happy to try and find it. I love research

Best of luck and Go Bernie!
