PRECINCT, ELECTION 04 Back
to Vote for Dina The
map below shows the election results in my neighborhood in the
southeast corner of West Seattle. My
precinct is colored blue. I flyered the neighborhood several times more before November with motivational info, and invitations to a precinct party (no one came, however). I gave them my contact info, in case they needed signs, or had questions about the election. (Only 2 people contacted me.) I called most of them right before the election with reminders. I even told them I had a bet going that our precinct would out-perform a neighboring precinct. RESULTS HIGH TURNOUT: Turns out my little precinct had a very good turnout: 84.4% of registered voters, higher than many of the neighboring precincts. HIGH PERCENTAGE FOR KERRY: More signficant, my precinct's voters went for Kerry 84.5%. Only TWO precincts out of the 208 in the 34th District (West Seattle, Vashon Island, White Center, parts of Burien) beat that number! Those two precincts also had very active Dem PCOs. For comparison: In 2000, the turnout in my precinct was 75% and they went 71.4% for Gore. POST-ELECTION
ACTION I'm also adding a suggestion for them to continue participating, by attending the West Seattle DFA meeting which I host, and/or the 34th District Dems monthly meetings, or the West Seattle Neighbors for Truth and Justice. |
about
80 colored flyers that included my picture and reasons why I'm
running, etc. Some already knew me from when I canvassed & caucused
for Dean.
