What We've Done
It's been a while since we updated our website, so we want to let you know the many things we've been doing over the past few months. Here are the highlights:
We’ve gone all out to register students to vote. Our voter registration drive included knocking on every door on campus and sending voting instructions and forms to all 8,923 students who attend UTC!
We are going to use the same level of determination to get students to actually vote. This week and next week, we’re going door to door again to distribute information about the candidates and early voting.
This only builds up to Election Day. We're going to contact students again just before Nov. 7 to remind them to vote if they haven't already done so, and vote Democratic. We plan to provide a shuttle from the UTC University Center to our local polling station to make sure no students have an excuse not to vote.
That is just what is occurring on our campus. We’re working with party headquarters and directly with several campaigns. We’ve recruited volunteers to help canvass for Bill Lusk, Brent Benedict, and Harold Ford all across Hamilton County. In fact, the assistant campaign manager for Bill Lusk is our former President, Adam Green. Through programs we’ve done in the past, such as going to conferences held by the Tennessee Federation of College Democrats and the National College Democrats of America, in addition to our everyday work, we’re training the next generation of leaders in the Democratic Party.
