Democrats Begin Highly Targeted Campaign Up and Down Pennsylvania Ballot
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party began a program Wednesday to give locally tailored messaging to canvassers across the state, for candidates from the Harris-Walz ticket down to school boards.
The party said it was the largest and most coordinated campaign it had conducted in Pennsylvania.
Canvassers will have highly targeted talking points. In a town where conservatives control the school board, the focus might be on book bans; in a rural county without good internet access, it might be on broadband funding from the infrastructure bill President Biden signed; in Pittsburgh, where a bridge collapsed in 2022, it might be on funding for road repairs.
The canvassers will also have campaign literature to give out, tailored to each of the state’s 67 counties and 203 State House districts, or even smaller areas. Each piece of literature — there are 395 in all — will have a QR code leading to a list of every candidate on local ballots and to voting information like polling locations that can be updated daily if details change.
