CAMPAIGN SNAPSHOT Reviewed general election returns for 2012, 2010, and 2006 but primarily focused
on 2012 because this was the first election after congressional redistricting became official.
Focused on Fairfax and Loudoun Counties due to high voter turnout.
Targeted competitive precincts that represented favorable opportunities for Bread’s message to positively impact voter behavior.
GR created literature specific to VA-10.
Lit drops and canvassing started October 21st GR VA-10 fact sheet.
375 pieces of literature dropped in Brookfield district in 3 days
Canvassing followed to query voters about thoughts on literature, making hunger and poverty voting factors, and importance of GOTV. Informed homeowners that Bread is non-partisan and does not endorse candidates nor does bread assist, support, and align with any political parties.
