“I think we are going to continue to see strong activity and turnout when it comes to grassroots organizations’ operations and especially when you look at the strength of the culinary workers in that district,” Lujan, head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, said on Thursday when he met a group of reporters to discuss several races across the country.
His comments come as a group of progressive organizations, including Planned Parenthood, plan to spend $3 million in Nevada to mobilize 300,000 voters in the state using peer-to-peer texting, digital organizing, as well as providing resources and training community leaders to knock on doors. The Culinary Union also has a formidable political operation and consistently plays a role in helping get out the vote in Southern Nevada.
