Californians head to Nevada and Arizona to knock on doors for Harris
So many head to Arizona and Nevada — nearby swing states that are expected to be critical in the tight presidential contest between Harris and former President Trump, as well as U.S. Senate races that could determine control of that body.
President Biden won Arizona in 2020 by 10,457 votes in a state of nearly 4.4 million registered voters, so swaying a small number of voters across the state’s precincts could make a difference.
Banuet is among roughly 300 people canvassing in Arizona who are paid for their efforts by Unite Here Local 11, a union that represents more than 32,000 hospitality workers in Southern California and Arizona.
The group also has more than 300 volunteers, mostly Californians, and aims to knock on more than 1.3 million doors in Arizona, the largest on-the-ground effort here by an organization not affiliated with a candidate committee, said Susan Minato, the union’s co-president.
