New ideas taking hold This morning (Saturday) I met with a half dozen or so Lubbock progressives and gave them an overview of my week at NOI. Topics that stuck in our minds for further investigation and local implementation were:

• College Campus planning


• Innovative fundraising methods via Actblue


• A serious effort to build a better voter metadatabase


• Distributed/Home phonebanking to extend our current phonebanking program


• More training, based on the NOI materials and on the DFA Night School materials (which are excellent!)

And, to be good disciples of Marshall Ganz's Learn-Do-Reflect cycle, we had a nice lunch afterward.

I will probably repeat my little training spiel in a month or so.

Pass it on!  ¶ posted by Dem-X @ 2:23 AM
