ELECTION
Super Walks in Everett, Olympia, Vancouver this Saturday
(Sept. 19) — Hundreds of union members and activists responded to the call for volunteers at the Washington State Labor Council’s first Labor Neighbor Super Walks held last Saturday in Auburn, Tacoma and Spokane. They got to meet some of labor’s endorsed candidates, have some fun visiting other union members and talking about this fall’s election, and reconvene with fellow volunteers for a post-walk barbecue.
And this Saturday, we’ll do it all over again in Everett, Olympia and Vancouver. Plus, we’ll continue to conduct weeknight phone banks across the state. So please join us!
VOLUNTEER! See the full Labor Neighbor calendar for a list of all of the weekday phone bank opportunities and Super Walks in your area. Also, volunteers can call from anywhere. If you have a computer and phone available at your office/home, you can participate in phone banking remotely via a virtual predictive dialing system.

The plan for the general election is to conduct fewer, but more intense “Super Walks” in targeted districts — and then have a BBQ. These Super Walks will be held every Saturday through Oct. 20. Every volunteer shift is from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. with snacks/training/pair up at 9:30 a.m., first knock at 10:30 a.m., last knock at 2:30 p.m., and debrief and a BBQ at 3 p.m.
The dates and locations for the walks this Saturday, Sept. 22 are:
EVERETT — Labor Temple — 2810 Lombard
OLYMPIA — WSLC/WFSE — 906 S. Columbia
VANCOUVER — IAFF 452 — 2807 NW Fruit Valley Rd.
