COUNTIES HELPING COUNTIES ELECT STRONG DEMOCRATS.
County-to-County (C2C) is a project of the Orange County Democratic Party that offers resources, support, and assistance to Democratic Parties in selected North Carolina counties. Since its inception in 2016, C2C has helped over 40 candidates in more than 20 counties.
Our Mission:
In partnership with NC Democratic county parties, we mobilize volunteers and resources to help build party infrastructure and to elect Democratic legislators to the General Assembly.
Our Vision:
We envision a North Carolina in which Democratic legislators, supported by strong county parties, enact policies that ensure opportunity and equity for all.
Volunteer Recruitment and Engagement Team
Working across the organization, the VRE team works to recruit volunteers, to enrich the volunteer experience, and to ensure that C2C volunteers are actively engaged in our activities and events.
Communications Team
The Communications team designs and maintains the C2C website, creates and edits a regularly published Call to Action (CTA), produces a monthly issues-based newsletter, creates printed publications, and promotes C2C through Social Media.
Canvassing Team
Canvasses neighborhoods in partner counties, talking with voters and distributing voter registration and candidate information.
Phone Banking Team
Partners with county parties and candidates to organize callers, identify supporters, persuade undecided voters, and encourage supporters to cast their vote through in-person or virtual phone banks. Within Orange County, phone bankers recruit volunteers, promote events, and keep voter contact information current.
DATA MANAGEMENT TEAM
Responsible for data entry for all C2C operations. This includes assisting partner counties and candidates in preparing call and walk lists and recording results of phone banks and canvasses. Provides VoteBuilder training. Following elections, Data Management creates tables, charts, and graphs reflecting demographic voting patterns.
VOTER REGISTRATION TEAM
Develops and implements strategies to increase the number of registered and informed voters in partner counties. Trains volunteers in current voting requirements and strengthens relationships with other VR organizations.
latino engagement team
Supports county Democratic parties and legislative candidates to better reach Latino voters. Works to increase Latino voter turnout through the development of bi-lingual materials, programming to partner with Latino community groups, volunteer recruitment, voter registration, phone and text banking, and canvassing for Spanish speaking and Latino voters.
STRATEGIC INFORMATION TEAM
Prepares profiles of partner counties using social, economic, demographic, and election data for County Team Leaders. Provides current information on local issues relevant to C2C candidates. Tracks legislative action on bills issues that highlight differences between two parties.
POSTCARD TEAM
Designs, hand-writes, and mails postcards providing Early Voting and Voting information, encouraging voters to participate in elections, and promoting Democratic candidates and values. Raises funds to support these voter outreach efforts.
“I can’t think of a better group that doesn’t just talk about making a difference, but actually puts the work in to get the job done.”
-Brian Farkas, Former Representative, House District 9
