Saturday, Feb. 1, 6:30pm: BerniePDX Joins Vancouver Organizers to Win WA for Bernie!

Click here to RSVP, and here to see the BerniePDX Facebook event.

The Bernie Campaign said that the most important thing we can do right now to make sure Bernie is our next President is to contact voters in early primary states.

Ballots drop in Washington on Feb. 22nd, with a deadline of March 10! This means that many people in Washington will vote before Super Tuesday! It is crucial for Portlanders to be canvasing in Vancouver!

The night before their first Bernie canvass in WA, there’s a big campaign kick off with organizers from all over the state. Let’s join them! Last election many Portlanders crossed the bridge to canvas in Vancouver and in return, they came to help us in Oregon.

It is cooperation like this that will get Bernie elected!

We will organize carpooling for anyone who needs a ride. Just message us or email debby@berniepdx.us.

Location: ILWU Local 4, 1205 Ingalls St, Vancouver, WA

Sunday, Feb. 2, 1-4pm: Phonebank the Day Before the Iowa Caucus w/ BerniePDX!

It’s the day before the Iowa Caucus so join BerniePDX for an extra-special get-out-the-vote, phonebank to propel Bernie to victory! With your help, he will win Iowa by a landslide. This is the first win Bernie needs to become our next president!

THERE WILL BE FREE BEER AND SNACKS! (21+ for Beer.) We are using a beautiful office space, so we can have the fun of a big group and still have all the quiet we need to talk on the phone.

**Please bring a laptop or non-iPad  tablet and a phone.**

If you are new to phone banking, no worries. No experience is necessary. People will be there to teach you how to make calls. Making these calls is fun and doing it together is a great way to hang out with and meet like-minded people!

If you are a member of Bernie’s text banking team you are welcome to join us and textbank, as well.

We are meeting earlier so that we can get some calls in before the Super Bowl starts, but you are welcome to stick around and call later then 4PM if you want. We can even project the game on mute if folks are interested.

Street parking is available around the building. Enter through main entrance on Everett and call/text Luke 206-741-3946 for entry.

Location: 1417 NW Everett St.

Sunday, Jan. 26, 3-6pm: Phonebank for Bernie w/BerniePDX

Join BerniePDX this Sunday, 3-6pm, to call voters and propel Bernie to victory! The first primary is just days away, and Bernie needs our help to become the next president!

Please bring a laptop or tablet and a phone.

Since Oregon’s primary is so late, the best way for us to help Bernie is to call early primary states (like California, which has over 400 delegates and moved their primary from June to March). That’s why BerniePDX is hosting phonebanks! Making these calls is fun and doing it together is a great way to hang out with and meet like-minded people!

Training and snacks will be provided.

Location: 2311 N Blandena St.
