America Votes Coalition Leads Get-Out-The-Vote Efforts To Ensure Progressive Victories In Nevada
From field to communications, progressives are joining forces to educate voters across the Silver State
NEVADA – Today, the America Votes coalition in Nevada released its 2018 memo regarding the work being done by progressive partners during one of the most hotly contested midterms in Nevada history. America Votes partners have been executing the largest midterm programs to conduct outreach to voters through direct voter contact programs, innovative communications and strategic digital work.
“These midterms present an opportunity for Nevada progressives to preserve the balance of power that we worked so hard for during the 2016 election cycle,” said Kenia Morales, America Votes Nevada State Director. “Compared to many parts of the country, in 2016, Nevada went a different direction because of the incredible work by the America Votes coalition in talking to everyday Nevadans about the issues that are important to them. This cycle we are building on that work and our coalition is working together to ensure that Nevada voters are informed and ready to vote this November. At the doors and online, we are seeing progressives motivated to ensure that Nevada goes forward this election.”
Highlights:
- The coalition is targeting all levels of the ballot, including federal, statewide and state legislative candidates.
- America Votes partners are focusing on knocking on 1.2 million doors in Clark County and over 300,000 in Northern Nevada throughout the Early Vote and Election Day period.
- This cycle’s texting program will be the largest ever, contacting hundreds of thousands of Nevadans with voting information.
- More than six figures will be spent on digital advertising between Early Vote and Election Day.
- Media advertising will reach different communities in various languages, including English, Spanish, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Chinese and Korean.
