Suggestion to improve the efficiency of our canvassing operations.
Edited on Wed Aug-30-06 01:29 AM by Ken Burch
Is it possible, rather than to have individual flyers for each candidate, to do a joint Democratic flyer for ALL our candidates in each area so that we could do one canvass for all of them at a time?

I think this would save money, and would limit the destructive practice of "cherry picking", in which the party only really put an effort into a few races(or, as in 2002 and 2004, only into the statewide race of one former OKIE coffee shop owner).

I'd like to see us try this. Would there be any legal problems?

1. That's not a bad idea
although I was surprised to learn last night at the Diane Benson headquarters that a LOT of Sarah Palin supporters also support Diane. There was even a Republican guy there to work on her campaign. If we sell all the Dems as a package, we might alienate all those Republicrats out there. :shrug:
