In 2016 our partner, For Our Future worked with Analyst Institute to measure the effectiveness of relational organizing on increasing turnout. Their Wisconsin program successfully leveraged volunteers’ pre-existing relationships with friends and family to get out the vote.
The results showed that Relational Organizing with MyRVPlist has a 5.9% impact on lower and middle propensity voters, a 6.9% impact on younger voters and a 7.7% impact on voters of color.
Our team is extremely proud of these results, they mimic what we saw in 2011 and 2012, and we are excited for the opportunity to share these tactics with future partners.
