Reach out to the people in your Personal Influence Network and tell them about the upcoming election
Sponsored by the PVA Executive Committee, www.pva-nm.org
The Issue
We enjoy the respect of many people who share our values and respect our opinions. These people make up our Personal Influence Network. We can have a profound positive effect on the outcome of the upcoming election by 1) reminding people of the upcoming election, 2) sharing what we know about the candidates, and 3) telling them how we ourselves plan to vote. Your friends and family will be grateful for the information.
What we are asking
Urge those in your Personal Influence Network to vote for the candidate or candidates you believe are most qualified.
If you would like to include information about early voting locations,
requesting an absentee ballot, seeing your own sample ballot,
you can find a sample paragraph with that information below.
When you have done the Action, please tell us, “I did it!”
