Precinct Official Spotlight
Ginger Macomber, Lisa Kenigsberg and Lori Marks
We highlight our exceptional Precinct Officials at Wayside Elementary School in District 15. Ginger Macomber, Lisa Kenigsberg and Lori Marks were quite sophisticated in their efforts to canvass their neighborhood.- First, they used VAN, the Democratic database, to create Walking Turfs. Their Precinct has 1300 Dems and 700 doors, so they created 24 turfs with about 30 doors in each turf.
- Second, they created a mailing address. They wanted people to be able to contact them to volunteer, or for questions, so they created a gmail account.
- Third, they created handout material. They used palm cards made of cardstock and a ribbon for doorknob hanging. On one side they introduced themselves, gave polling information and their contact information. On the other side was Legislative Contact information specific to their precinct.
- Fourth, they ordered Make America Kind Again T-shirts and were ready to go.
- Lastly, a formatted thank you to those who gave contact information. D15 has a mailing list, so we can keep in touch. EMAIL - SIGN UP HERE
Kudos for the team for their hard work and good planning!
Jay Guan
D15 would like to highlight our outstanding precinct official Jay Guan, Chair at Wilson Wims Elementary School in Clarksburg. Jay set up a letter writing party at the Clarksburg Village Clubhouse. This attracted a large number of participants from this upcounty area which is in the process of becoming more active. Last spring, Jay suggested holding a forum on transportation, which is a major issue in many upcounty neighborhoods. As a result, Delegate Fraser-Hidalgo organized a Traffic Forum in Germantown in October, which was a huge success!!! Because of Jay, Democracy is at work.
