About this event
There are hundreds of voters every election whose ballots are rejected and, therefore, not counted. Many of these voters have their ballots rejected in multiple elections.
LWVTPC is partnering with Pierce County Elections on a project to resolve some of the ballot rejection issues. Emma White, Education and Outreach Coordinator, with Pierce County Elections is working with us in this effort.
The project involves teams of two going to the houses where the voters live. We will talk with the voter about the problem and try to resolve it. Most likely, the problem is the voter's signature. Pierce County Elections will provide us with forms for the voter to fill out to resolve the problem.
The training will cover canvassing tips, safety protocols, prepared script, and review of the forms. Additional training will be scheduled if needed.
The first Doorbelling Day will be June 15th. The plan is to meet at the LWVTPC office for coffee and gathering doorbelling materials. If it works out, we will meet back at the office to talk about what we learned. Additional Doorbelling Days will be scheduled later.
