1. The bare bones of the CTU election campaign PSA YOUTH CONFERENCE MAY 2014

2. We can change politics There are more than enough registered voters who do not support the current policies of National and its support parties – they can change politics in September with their votes. The gap between the National+ bloc and the Labour/Green+ bloc is very narrow already – even when you only count those most likely to vote in September The story of the 294,000….

3. The big difference this time One non-partisan union movement campaign Main focus is on mobilisation, rather than advocacy or persuasion Election runs from 3-20 September Voters can enrol and advance vote at about 10% of polling places until 19 September - and can vote in all polling places on Election Day

4. Volunteers All volunteers will be asked to collect and record Voter Pledges. Volunteers can also:  Help VOTERS make and record their Voting Plan  Organise around the Voting Plan (eg where the VOTER needs transport or where the plan is a collective plan at the workplace)  Follow up with VOTERS following their vote
