Start a local team
Why
Local trust wins elections
People believe people they see year-round—not a stranger who drops in once. A named team in your county makes the campaign believable where it matters.
How
Start with 2–5 people
Small is stable.
You do not need a crowd on day one—a few committed neighbors who will text back is enough to begin. Add rhythm and roles as you grow.
Want the relational frame first? Bring 5 Friends.
What
What your team does
Start with one thing. You can add more as you go.
- Identify supporters
- Host gatherings
- Support fairs / events
- Build Power of 5
- Share voter info

Makes registration, deadlines, and voting steps plain enough to share at a kitchen table.
