Get on the FIRST NYC BUS OF THE MIDTERMS! Join Target Majority NYC (a local Indivisible & Swing Left Group) for a Ground Truth canvass in must-FLIP PA-08. A short ride of just 90 mins from NYC.
Join Swing Left on a planned day trip to knock doors with **Ground Truth**—our deep-listening canvassing program. We’re heading to PA-08—a must-win Swing District—to knock on every door, not just the ones on a list. You don’t need to be a policy expert—just a good listener!
This trip is currently unconfirmed—we need to reach a threshold of 25 sign-ups by Friday, August 14 to make this bus a reality. **By signing up here, you are saving your spot and helping make this trip happen.**
## The Mission: Deep Listening
This isn’t your standard canvass. Through Ground Truth, we are changing how Democrats talk—and more importantly listen—to voters:
– **Knock Every Door:** We don’t filter by party. We listen to everyone to truly understand the pulse of the community.
– **Deep Listening:** We have real, two-way conversations. We’re not pitching or arguing; we’re listening to voter experiences, fears, and values.
– **Capture Insights:** You’ll be taking detailed notes on the voters you meet. These insights help us identify persuadable voters and provide campaigns with the deep intelligence they need to win.
## Here is the plan:
– **Sign up now and help us reach our volunteer goal:** As soon as we hit 25 volunteers, we will confirm the bus, finalize the departure details, and reach out to you immediately.
– **Ready to roll:** Once confirmed, your bus captain will provide departure details, training, and the Ground Truth conversation guide.
## What to expect:
– **The Trip:** The bus will leave [Departure Location] at [Departure Date and Time] and return around [Return time].
– **Canvassing:** We’ll be knocking on doors in the district from roughly 12–6pm.
– **Preparation:** You’ll receive all training materials, location details, and support from your bus captain. You will be walking door-to-door, so comfortable shoes, a water bottle, and weather appropriate clothing like sunscreen, a hat, and an umbrella/poncho are recommended.
The conversations we have today could be the tipping point. Can we count on you to help us get this bus on the road? Sign up today!

Every Thursday, Indivisible co-founders Ezra Levin and Leah Greenberg host a participatory conversation on the week’s news, the state of our democracy, and our plan to defeat the authoritarian threats we face. This week we’ll be joined by Indivisible endorsed candidate Patrick Roath, who is challenging a 13-term incumbent in the MA-08 Democratic primary.
