    2. Ideas for Attracting Members to Mendocino County Democratic Inland Club
      Who got trained? Who will do the MOE?
      • The membership is 2% of the registered democrats that could be in the club.
      • Use MOE to generate target DEMS for out-reach
      • I'd like to get a list of registered DEMs in our IMDC zips to send out recruiting letters, or a least to sign up on the mailing list.
      • A list of specific age groups to help the REYDems,
      • A list by ethnicity to help Juan set up a Latino club.
      • A list of  those Dems who have not voted in recent elections, a reminder that registering is only the first step in participation.
