May 2 Election Polling Place Canvass

Event Description:
Equality Fairfax needs volunteers to canvass voters outside of the polling places during the special Town Elections to be held throughout the county on May 2, 2006. Our goal is to use these elections as an opportunity to meet registered voters and identify solid "no votes" for the Marshall/Newman Amendment on the November General Election ballot. We will provide training, campaign literature and pledge sheets for anyone who volunteers to assist. There will be only a few polling places affected on May 2, one each in Vienna, Herndon and Clifton as well as six in Fairfax City and 5 in Falls Church. We would want to try to cover most of them during the key voting hours of 6-8AM and 5-7PM. Note: We will also be doing this for all polling places during the Democratic Primary Election scheduled for Tuesday, June 13. Contact Terry Mansberger 703-573-0046, terry@equalityfarifax.org to volunteer.
