Blue Wave Numbers

  • 2020 VR Campaign (8.5% registration rate)

    In 2020, we partnered with Alliance for Climate Education to register young voters in 6 swing states. We sent postcards to 330k unregistered voters. ACE also followed up with them with calls, texts and targeted digital ads. At the end of the campaign, 8.5% (28k) of the voters we reached out to were registered.

  • 2021 Advocacy Campaign (3% activation rate)

    In 2021, we partnered with Common Cause, sending 150,000 postcards to Arizonans, urging them to call their Senator, Krysten Sinema, to pass the For the People Act. At least 3% of these postcards generated a patch-through phone call. Over 80% of these calls were live conversations averaging 1.5 minutes long.

  • 2022 VR Campaign (8.2% registration rate)

    In 2022, we collaborated with El Paso County Progressive Veterans to register Latino voters in Colorado. We reached out to 43,251 unregistered Latino voters. EPCPV followed up with digital ads. At the end of the campaign, 8.2% of these people had registered to vote.
