Polling Place and Vote Tripling

Facilitation by:

Alfredo Hernandez and Marisa Kanof at Vote Rev

Categories:

Polling Place Vote Tripling (PPVT) is a get-out-the-vote tactic designed and mainstreamed by VoteRev.org in 2020. PPVT canvassers engage voters as they exit the polls and encourage them to remind three friends to vote. This session, led by members of the Vote Rev team, explores how the tactic was developed to streamline the traditional work of canvassing by further mobilizing “non-activist” voters at the polls. In this session, we discuss how to safely integrate PPVT into your existing in-person canvassing programs.
