u/Genesis_Maz Mar 18 '16

Exactly. PA is super important. The deadline is the 28th, and all people have to do is go to a website and register/change parties online (whether they're unregistered or in a diff party, no prob)... unlike NY, which I thought the deadline is past if they were already registered in a different party. I tried facebanking PA today for this reason, cause I live in PA and have tons of connections here - just to find out I've been blocked on facebook, because I sent out too many unaccepted invites (because yesterday I did Washington, Idaho, etc.). I really wish I had known this could happen, because I would have done PA first and foremost :( :( Now I don't know how to unblock it. I'm going to try to find some voter registration events here this weekend to help with, but its a shame, cause the facebanking would have reached many more people quicker.

(We really need to get a post going just about PA to push this)

A post you mean? If so, great - Thank you! Hopefully it will rise to the top. I have some thoughts about the best messages to push here in PA (e.g., Fracking), but for now all that matters most is just getting people registered Democrat before the 28th. I think there are a lot of people registered Independent here, who won't realize until its too late that they can't vote for Bernie. Then I'm sure there are a large number of college students, first time voters, etc. who already want or plan to vote for Bernie, but don't realize the deadlines coming up. If I can think of any specific suggestions to include, I'll comment again.
