The Precinct Strategy �in 60 Seconds

Unite2Win805 Precinct Strategy

Why build a Precinct Organization?

• Historically, legislative influence has gravitated to those who controlled the precincts. The precinct is the smallest voting unit of the American political structure – it is the most “connected” voting unit as voters within it often share neighborhoods.
• Precincts are the building blocks that make up wards, towns, counties, state legislative districts, congressional districts, states and ultimately, the nation. In urban and suburban areas, precincts usually consist of the local neighborhood in which you live. In rural areas, precincts can be geographically much larger. Each of us used to vote at a polling place within our own precinct.
• The role of political parties in precinct politics has diminished significantly, but the power of precinct politics has not. Elected officials often build their own precinct organizations, which remain loyal to them and help disseminate information on pending issues and legislation.
• There are 821 precincts in Santa Barbara County – we can help you connect you to yours!
