At practically the last moment, Penn ACTION secured some additional resources from the One Nation Working Together march to set up an additional canvass operation. This is a non-partisan get out the vote canvass that is targeting infrequent voters among single women, African Americans and young people under thirty in Northeast Philly and Montgomery County.
The NE Philly office is at 14425 Bustleton Avenue although it is at the back of a strip mall building that fronts on Philmont Avenue. It is a block north of the the Somerton train station on the West Trenton Line.
We’ll be there from 11:00 am to about 6:30 pm on Monday and from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm on Election Day. We can send you out to canvass any time, but please call ahead to let us know you are coming as we will be out of the office at times, especially on Monday. If you can’t join the canvass, you will be able to join our phone bank.
To let me know you are coming, email MarcStier@pennaction.org or call (215) 880-6142.
Here are some pictures from our first effort on Sunday at which we had seven canvassers, including a group of people who worked on the One Nation Working Together march in Washington, DC:
