Experience |
Canvassing ballot initiative for the Clean Energy for a Healthy Arizona proposal, now Prop 127 for the Nov 2018 Election. Such work included meeting people in public places to obtain signatures in support of the ballot initiative, going door to door to registered voters residences for the same. I also drove people to their sundry locations, a task of some responsibility. Our campaign succeeded both in getting on the Fall ballot AND in beating APS/TEP in their ludicrous attempt in the AZ Supreme Court to challenge the validity of the signatures gathered And the legal eligibility of the canvassers to do so. I also worked on a brief ACLU data gathering operation concerning the possible Senatorial candidacy of Joe Arapaio, for 1 week before it was de-funded. Worked GOTV as Team Leader, managing crew of 2-4 people on door-knocking campaign until the Nov 6 Election.
2020, Canvassing for support of healthcare initiative, reform of hospital billing. |
