It's time to canvass! Whether you're collecting signatures for an initiative or just want to recruit some new volunteers, our Clipboard Kits have all the basics you'll need to get on your feet and starting talking to people.

Put the sheets on your clipboard, grab a few pens and a stack of mini-zines or handouts to give away, and you're good to go!

If you're collecting signatures for a ballot initiative, be sure to talk to your local field coordinator so you have all the correct materials and training required. They should be able to meet with you in person and give you everything you might need. If you aren't part of an in-person team, no worries: we have everything you might need right here.

Educational Materials:

 

Mini-Zines!
Our pocket sized (mini-magazine) handouts. Everything you need to know, the size of a business card. You can either order them pre-made from our shop or print and make your own following these instructions.

 

STAR Voting Quarter Sheet - Color
1/4 sheets are a great handout, and they are easier to print and make if you don't have any zines on hand. They also are a good substitute for the full sheet color ballot graphic if your clipboard already has something on both sides. Black and white version here. 

 

Generic Clipboard Kit:

The generic clipboard kit includes materials that all STAR canvassers and people out tabling in the community should have. The script, instructions, and FAQ are mainly used for training and as a reference for you, the canvasser.

Everything you need to print to get out and canvass if you don't have an active campaign in your area! This includes the files below. Printing double sided is recommended to save paper.

Email List and Volunteer Sign-Up Sheet
It's good to use a sign-up sheet that already has a few rows filled out so people feel they're not alone when writing down their info. You can keep track of who's already been entered by drawing a vertical line to the left of those rows. Alternatively, folks can always sign up at starvoting.us/join if they prefer. 

 

Full Sheet Ballot

Perfect to put on the back of your clipboard to use as a visual aid to talk through how the STAR Voting ballot works.

 

Script and Instructions for Gathering Signatures - General
Keep this handy as a reference. Read carefully and practice! Feel free to vary the script itself depending on what works for you. The instructions include a checklist and a number of rules and tricks of the trade that you'll want to be up to speed on.

 

FAQ: Double-sided and print-ready
Keep this handy as a reference. Read carefully and practice! It's vital that we give people accurate information. If you're not sure how to answer a question, please direct people to starvoting.org for more info.
