Join Illinois Victory 2008 for a Democratic Volunteer Training! Both new and old volunteers are welcome to join us for a volunteer training run by Illinois Victory 2008, the coordinated campaign for Illinois that is electing Democrats up and down the ticket including our very own Bill Foster. We’ll go over the basics of phone calls, going door-to-door, writing letters to the editor, and getting out the vote. This will be a great session for people who want to get involved for the first time and a perfect refresher course for current volunteers.
Illinois Victory is hosting a series of trainings all around the 14th Congressional District. Take a look a join them for whichever is nearest to you and, if you want, bring some food to share!
