Maximize Your Field Strategy Through Precinct Prioritization
Tuesday, December 5 at 1pm ET

Voter outreach is essential, even this early on. But campaigns, from the most local ones to Presidential bids, don’t necessarily target every single voter in every single district. That’s where prioritization comes in!

Precinct prioritization is the means through which your campaign maximizes its resources by focusing efforts to certain districts or neighborhoods. Plus, prioritization involves using various tactics depending on the specific precinct. Learn more and get a head start on field best practices.
