Earlier this month, data leaks revealed that roughly 24 percent of door-knocks in Arizona and 25 percent of door-knocks in Nevada in a single week had been flagged as “unusual,” an internal metric used to indicate fake door-knocks
I canvassed for the state democrat party under a consulting firm. I'd estimate we faked at least 25% of our door knocks. It was normally work half the day, then take an hour lunch (on the clock), fake whatever knocks we didn't get to, go get the 2nd packet of canvass addresses, then work another 60-90 minutes more, then fake the rest of our knocks and chill the rest of the day. it was the same whether you worked with a partner or alone.
I canvassed for a Dem pac in 2020 because it paid well. I thought i was grifting them but the fact that I actually at least walked the turfs they gave me made me one of the best canvassers on the team. The guy I worked with most of the time was also one of the best and he was a Republican who voted against the candidate we were canvassing for. One guy was selling drugs as he canvassed and most of the team was highschool aged kids who could barely speak English and clearly did not know or care about what was happening. We took long breaks, spoofed doors, and spent as little time as possible actually talking to voters and they were thrilled with our work.
There's no way anything they're reporting on here is exclusive to Elon's pac, the Dems are just in denial about how they spend their money.
Damn this makes me feel way better about when I volunteered to canvas for a mayoral election. I only did a single day but I really did try and hit all my assigned locations and hang door knockers.
