Grassroots Friday - Issue #18

Filing opens on Monday!
Candidates who have their petitions together will be filing early in the morning to have a chance at the top ballot line.
That means that our focus is going to narrow greatly for this last week+ to the folks that aren’t quite there yet.
For us, at least in the suburbs, we’re setting our sights on the 57th House District (Northfield, Northbrook, parts of Glenview, Wheeling and others). We need a couple hundred more signatures to make sure that Jonathan Carroll has an opponent in 2022.
We can’t win races we’re not in.
Other members of our team need help too, in Arlington Heights, in the Metro East, in Central Illinois, and in Kane County.
This is the time.

Walks this Weekend (and beyond)

Rory Welch is running for State Representative to unseat Jonathan Carroll in the 57th District. To get on the ballot, he needs 400 valid signatures from registered voters in the district. We will offer training before each shift. First time volunteers are welcome and encouraged to get involved. Join our team and participate in the growing movement to change the state of Illinois!

Day of Action Recap
Andy Bakker
Happy Day of Action!

Our volunteers are leading teams at 20 locations 🇺🇲
15 walks 📋
5 petition parties 🎉

It's. February. In. Illinois. https://t.co/5WHt4pTWuB
Thank you so much to everyone who participated in last week’s Statewide Day of Action!
The results were tremendous and a huge boon to our candidates.
We hit just under 4,000 doors with over 55 volunteers (and that’s just the walks). We doubled what we did last month.
It’s this kind of sustained growth that will carry our volunteer teams and our candidates to victory in November.
Great job 👏👏👏

Training volunteers, dispatching walkers, and crushing the day of action in Milton Township 💪🇺🇲 https://t.co/sQoJHWIKEU
Let’s close this thing out strong!
Once we get our candidates on the ballot, we’re going to celebrate the victories. Then we’re on to the traditional campaign work of identifying supporters at the doors and over the phones.
Proud to be in this fight with you,
