Progressive Turnout Project Temporarily Suspends Canvassing in Atlanta Area
“Safety comes first, and we’ve temporarily suspended our door-to-door canvassing program in the Atlanta area based on Mayor Bottoms’ guidance. We’ll continue to reach out to voters by phone and text through our Turnout 2020 program.
“Progressive Turnout Project will continue to monitor CDC, state, and local health guidelines and data, and will return to canvassing in the Atlanta area only if and when it’s safe to do so.” — Alex Morgan, Executive Director, Progressive Turnout Project
More information on Progressive Turnout Project’s canvassing safety protocols is available online.
