As you may have heard, knocking on voters' doors and engaging them in one-on-one conversations is the single most effective way to win their vote. But maybe you're hesitant about canvassing. A lot of people are! Or, maybe it's been a while and you need a refresher or just have questions about how it works.

We show you what to expect; lead you through the process step-by-step; share tips accumulated over years of experience; and answer all your questions and concerns. And we bring friends from Chicago improv companies to add a little fun and a lot of communication savvy.

Incumbents have a huge advantage in our electoral system for a variety of reasons, one of which is name recognition. We want to provide challengers to entrenched incumbents in our area the opportunity to meet our members in a relaxed, meet and greet environment. For this get-together Indivisible Lincoln Square has invited challengers in the following races:

Illinois 5th Congressional District: incumbent Mike Quigley will have 4 opponents. Only one of the 4, Matt Conroy, accepted our invitation.

Cook County Commission District 10: Bridget Gainer is facing only 1 opponent, Drake Warren, who will be attending.

Illinois 6th State Senate District: Sara Feigenholtz is facing only 1 opponent, Nick Uniejewski, who will be attending.

All 3 incumbents are also being invited but we have no word yet on whether any will be attending.

From Indivisible (national)

Would-be authoritarians love to flood the zone. Flooding the zone is a tactic used to move an aggressive agenda forward in so many directions, at the same time, that it becomes overwhelming. We are forced to fight back on too many horrific fronts, exhausting our spirits and making it impossible to focus.

It is important to understand that we are currently experiencing this tactic so that we can counteract its impacts. 

At this call, we’ll learn how to regulate in real time while acknowledging that our responses are predictable and normal in the face of unyielding stress and trauma. You’ll leave with practical tools and strategies to help you stabilize and move through the stress from Nkem Ndefo.
