John,
People are volunteering at an amazing rate – over 1,000 every week. We now have a nearly complete field operation to help organize volunteers and get the word out about Jo’s Presidential campaign.
National Field Director Joe Hauptmann is temporarily covering one group of states (NE, MN, IA, WI, IL, MI, IN). while Jo’s aide on the campaign trail Jess Mears is temporarily covering another (MS, AL, GA, SC, FL). Here is the rest of our field organizing team.
- Richard Manzo: VT, NH, ME, MA, CT, RI
- Elijah Gizzarelli: OH, PA, NY, NJ, MD, DE
- Cristi Kendrick: TN, KY, WV, VA, NC, DC
- Desarae Lindsey: KS, OK, TX, MO, AR, LA
- Seth Levy: AK, ID, MT, ND, SD, WY, UT, CO, NM
- Jake Porter: WA, OR, CA, NV, AZ, HI
We are searching for permanent organizers for the states Joe and Jess are currently covering. If you have strong campaign and/or organizing experience and would be interested in doing this full time, contact Joe at [email protected].
We are also working with state affiliates to recruit state and local organizers. Over three-fourths of the states have a state organizer or team in place, and our field organizers expect to the rest in place by the end of the week.
You can join the volunteer effort at https://joj2020.com/volunteer. Once you submit the volunteer form, be sure to join the volunteer Slack group and check out 11 things you can do right now.
If you previously signed up to volunteer but haven’t been contacted, please send an email to [email protected] and let our volunteer coordinator know. Thanks.
