slide-17
SLIDE 17

Voter Registration in NC:

NC has (as of Feb. 9) 2.46 million Democrats, 2.09 million unaffiliated and 1.98 million Republicans in North Carolina. In the last 15 years, the number of Democrats has risen 3 percent, Republicans 14 percent and unaffiliated voters 135 percent. Unless the party opts to have its primary open, NC voters can vote in the primary of the party they are

  • registered. If they are an ‘unaffiliated’

voter, they can choose one primary to vote in. The deadline to register to vote in this state is 25 days before the day of the

  • election. Forms that are mailed must be

received or postmarked by the deadline. If you miss the voter registration deadline, you may register and vote during the

  • ne-stop absentee voting period (early

voting) for the election.

SC had 3,229,219 registered voters as of Oct 2019. South Carolina is currently one of 15 states that have “open” primaries. This means any registered voter may cast a ballot in either party’s primary — but not both. South Carolina voters also don’t have to register by political

  • party. In 2016, 158,959 voted in

Democratic primary and 260,611 in the Republican primary. 2,133,381 voted in the general election in 2016. The deadline to register to vote in this state is 30 days before the day of the

  • election. Forms that are mailed must

be received or postmarked by the deadline.

1. "Any group of voters which, at the last preceding general State election, polled for its candidate for Governor, or for presidential electors, at least two percent (2%) of the entire vote cast in the State for Governor or for presidential electors." For example, in 2012, 4,468,295 votes were cast for governor. For a newly established political party to maintain its recognized status, its candidate for governor would have had to win at least 89,366 votes

slide-27

2. "Any group of voters which shall have filed with the State Board of Elections petitions for the formulation of a new political party which are signed by registered and qualified voters in this State equal in number to one-quarter

  • f one percent (0.25%) of the total number of voters who voted in the most

recent general election for Governor. Also the petition must be signed by at least 200 registered voters from each of three congressional districts in North Carolina." Petitions must include the name of the proposed political party. Petitions may be started at any time within a four-year presidential election

  • cycle. After each presidential election, existing petitions for new parties that

have not been finalized are voided and must be restarted.

slide-28

3. "Any group of voters which shall have filed with the State Board of Elections documentation that the group of voters had a candidate nominated by that group on the general election ballot of at least seventy percent (70%)

  • f the states in the prior Presidential election. To be effective, the group must

file their documentation with the State Board of Elections before 12:00 noon

  • n the first day of June preceding the day on which is to be held the first

general State election in which the new political party desires to participate."

Political parties desiring to nominate candidates for offices to be voted on in a general or special election must, before doing so, petition the state election commission for certification no later than six months before the election. A petition for the certification of a new political party must be signed by 10,000 or more registered electors residing in South Carolina. The petition must provide the name of the party, which must be substantially different from the name of any other party previously certified.

align with.

  • Work with your county party. Some precincts will be targeted more than others and there may only be so many

people willing to phonebank or go door-to-door---use your resources wisely. Folks you have organized in your precinct may be deployed elsewhere.

  • Never Argue
  • Spend no more than 5 minutes per household
  • Don’t try to answer questions you don’t know the answer to. Tell the voter that you don’t know but will get back to

them when you have the answer.

  • Travel as a team, with one working each side of a street. Male-female teams are more effective than all-male or

all-female teams.

  • Know your polling place/the polling place of the houses you are knocking on.
