Campaign Underground Status Report (WE NEED HELP!) [View All]

Please read this entire post closely before you respond!

I'm sorry about the false start last week. Now I've actually got time to focus on finishing Campaign Underground, but I'm going to need lots of help.

I had no idea this was going to be so difficult to coordinate. Please forgive my previous lack of organization. Hopefully this will get us back on track.


HOW YOU CAN HELP OUT

There is a lot of data to fill in, and a lot of people who want to help. To ensure that this gets done, we need to do this in a relatively structured manner. You can volunteer for as many states as you like, and each state can have more than one volunteer. If you want to volunteer to help, please follow these instructions closely.

1. Look at the list below to select which state(s) you want to help with.

2. Go to Campaign Underground http://www.democraticunderground.com/cu and double-check the state to see what work needs to be done.

3. Post in this thread to indicate that you want to help. (Do not email me or send me a private message. I want to keep all the info in one place.) PLEASE INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

- Which state you want to help with.
- Which data you are going to collect.

4. I will update the list below to indicate who is working on each state. I will then send you a private message with instructions and passwords necessary to access the database and edit that state.

5. When you are finished collecting and entering data, post again in this thread to let me know that you have completed your task. I will then update the list above.


COORDINATING YOUR WORK

If you wish to coordinate work with other people, you can use the state forums for that purpose. Wherever possible, you should contain the discussion of each state to a single thread to avoid confusion. There are already threads open in some of the forums to discuss Campaign Underground. IF THERE IS A CU THREAD OPEN IN ANY STATE FORUM, OR IF YOU OPEN SUCH A THREAD, PLEASE POST THE LINK HERE. I will add the link to the status sheet below.
