Minneapolis – Concerned Veterans for America (CVA) Minnesota state chapter is working to mobilize the thousands of Minnesota veterans and military families to vote this November 8th in an effort called “GOTVets.”
The group’s Minnesota chapter has over 25 staffers and active volunteers in the state who aim to make nearly 50,000 calls asking people to get out and vote on Election Day. CVA Minnesota is also directing veterans in the state to online resources such as CVA’s civic action center, helping veterans register to vote and locate polling locations.
There are 22 million veterans in the United States. CVA is active in 16 states across the country, using an “army” of over 2,500 volunteers to knock on doors and make phone calls for freedom. The group aims to make over 1.5 million contacts by November 8th, having already made 650,000 calls and knocked on almost 27,000 doors nationwide.
If you are interested in interviewing CVA National Field Director and Minnesota native Nate Anderson on getting Minnesota veterans out to vote this November, please contact Emilye Bell at embell@cv4a.org.
