Volunteer With the Coordinated Campaign!

The Washington State Party Coordinated Campaign is ramping up!

This team is boosting voter turnout for the August 6 primary by having conversations with targeted voters who aren’t likely to vote unless YOU talk to them.

The effort will feature outreach on behalf of Bob Ferguson, Maria Cantwell, our congressional delegation, our State Senators and State Representatives.

There will be phonebanks, traditional Saturday canvasses, and a Knock-Your-Own-Neighborhood canvassing program which allows volunteers to knock on doors in their own neighborhood, at their own pace.

Sign up here!
