After the 2020 election cycle, we surveyed rural leaders, candidates, and organizers to find out what they needed help with. One of the biggest asks was help with data and how to best use it in rural Tennessee.
We put together a team and crafted an easy-to-use approach to help with this. We call it The Community Survey Toolkit.
The Background
The right data at the right time allows a campaign to punch above its collective weight. It allows local county parties to feel the heartbeat of their community.
We also know that good data is like a garden – constantly tended to. Without that care and attention, we find ourselves struggling to reach people due to outdated information and incomplete voter files.
During the 2020 election and the months afterward, our volunteers tested using a simple community survey for outreach. This maintains accurate data on voters, trains volunteers on phone banking, and provides helpful results from the survey questions you ask.
Think of it as phone banking for candidates except with this approach, we’re focused on issues and community engagement.
