The turnout by Dems was low.
And we had real problems with the way VA Dems ran their GOTV campaign.
They refused to have any text-banking , only phone banking and sending out LETTERS. Not even postcards.
The letters campaign was a real mess. We had to print out letters and hand-write the letters. It was time consuming and expensive (we had to pay for postage).
There were about 20,000 names that were never claimed for letters. Those 20,000 names would have easily been reached with texts.
I remember many times while texting for Gavin Newsom in his recall campaign, I received many thanks from recipients for reminding them to return their ballots.
I also received thanks for reminding NJ Dems to vote for Phil Murphy.
But 1000s of Virginia Dem voters were never even contacted.
We were told that letters were far superior to texting. How can that be if they never even got sent?! We dont even know if they were ever opened!!
I wrote scathing emails to VA Dem officials after the election.
None of them even bothered to respond.
