Sorry about the delay in responding. The Democratic office assists you in downloading a smartphone app that will show a map of houses in an area that are considered targets. All have at least one resident that is a registered Democrat or Unaffiliated. This does not prevent interactions with another person at the residence that is Republican.
We have knocked on 60 doors over two days canvassing and have had no bad experiences. My wife did say that a white woman driving by did give her a look of displeasure once. We were wearing Harris/Walz tee shirts, so not exactly inconspicuous.
Getting back to the smartphone app, it’s pretty good. The office has you enter a code that displays the target residences on a map with the number of target individuals at the residence inside a bubble. Selecting the bubble displays names of the individuals, the street address, and the latest party affiliation. There is a prepared spill, but I never use it. Results of the visit are logged in blanks and notes can be taken. I used this often to give information that no results blank described. These were things like need for a ride with phone number or listing additional voter counts than those displayed. There are the one-offs too, like talking to a man that was working on his car but his residence was not displayed as a target. His house actually had four straight Democrat voters. He received a grateful handshake and we had a good conversation.
Good stuff!
