June 13: GOTV Training with Scott Presler
Our own Scott Presler, raised in Northern Virginia, will be holding a Get Out the Vote Training for us on June 13th at 6:45pm, at the Fair Oaks Marriott. See the invitation below for complete details, and click HERE to register.
Scott first made national headlines in 2019 after President Donald Trump brought attention to the fact that West Baltimore had piles of uncollected trash and a rat infestation, and Scott organized dozens of volunteers to go in to clean up some of the most neglected neighborhoods. They removed 12 tons of trash and connected with many voters along the way! He is a member of the Leadership Institute’s Volunteer Faculty and has trained over 10,000 activists. In the past three years, he has spoken in hundreds of cities across 30 states. Scott received the Ronald Reagan Award at CPAC in 2021.
In the years since that time, he has become the leading national activist for voter registration, known for his innovative methods for reaching communities that have potential for higher voter turnout. He has enthusiastically agreed to come to Northern Virginia to teach us how to increase our voter outreach in order to re-elect President Donald Trump and our other Republican candidates.
