Talk to 5 Friends about the November 5 Election
Sponsored by the PVA Executive Committee, pva@pva-nm.org
The issue
It’s important that we vote, but it’s also important that we advocate for candidates we believe in. This kind of advocacy is at the heart of the democratic process, and often a friend’s recommendation has tremendous influence on how we vote, especially in municipal elections.
What we are asking
The Unified Action this month is simple. To participate, you contact five friends (in person, by phone, email or regular mail) and urge them to vote on Tuesday, November 5, for the candidate or candidates you believe are most qualified to lead Las Cruces at this time.
Ideally, you will talk with people who may not have made a decision and for whom your recommendation could make a difference.
As always, please email pva.unified.action@gmail.com to tell us “I did it!” when you have completed the action.
