DPI Votebuilder Academy Training @ Joliet & Zoom
Dec 19 @ 12:00 pm

The countdown to Election Day 2022 has started and it’s time to get serious about our ramping up our Democratic campaigns. That’s why the Democratic Party of Illinois is holding its first training session for Democratic volunteers and activists.

Can you join us on Sunday, December 19 at noon CT in person or online for our first Votebuilder Academy training session?

RSVP

Votebuilder is the software that many Democratic campaigns use to track their grassroots outreach. By attending the training session, you’ll have the skills needed to hit the streets as soon as campaign season kicks into high gear.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a first-time door knocker or a seasoned phone banker, we could all use a refresher on the latest campaign technology. Attendees can participate in person in the Joliet area (exact address given upon RSVP) or online via Zoom.

Click here to RSVP for the Votebuilder Academy on December 19!

From the American Rescue Plan in Congress to the minimum wage increase passed by state legislators to the important advancements by local officials, Democrats have delivered across Illinois. Now it’s time to make sure we deliver at the ballot box next November!
