3. You could best help if you hook up with a "Get Out The Vote" group.
Just driving around and looking for potential voters might make people doubt your intentions, you know?

Closer to the election, choose the state and metro area that you want to work in. Get in touch with the local Democratic Party in that area and tell them that you want to volunteer for their "Get Out The Vote" effort. They should be able to provide you more direction at that time.

In my experience, GOTV efforts are best organized by local unions. If possible, try to find an AFL-CIO or UAW organization in the area you want to work. Even if you're not a union member, they'll likely take you on. :-)

Good luck, and think about coming to Ohio... we're a true battleground state, and it's going to take everything, absolutely everything, we have to Get Out the Damned Vote!!!!!
