Medeoprichter van Wikipedia verbannen wegens ‘canvassing’
Larry Sanger, één van de medeoprichters van Wikipedia, is voor onbepaalde tijd verbannen van de online encyclopedie. De directe aanleiding is ‘canvassing’, oftewel het ronselen van stemmen buiten het platform om.

Call voters in Arizona's CD 01 with Ground Truth! · Swing Left
Join Swing Left for a [Ground Truth](https://ourgroundtruth.org) phone bank—designed to fix what’s broken in Democratic organizing. We’re testing an innovative new program that will revolutionize how we connect with voters over the phone. Our goal: to help Democrats rebuild trust and win back power in the Midterms and beyond
At this phone bank, we’ll:
- Call all types of voters -- not just those who vote like us.
- Have real conversations that listen deeply to voters’ concerns.
- Gather insights to share with campaigns, so they can be responsive to voters’ needs and smarter with their messaging, targeting, and outreach.
Don’t worry if it’s your first time—training, materials, and support are all provided.
You can join and call from just your computer/tablet, but we recommend being prepared with a phone and earbuds as well!

About the program:
This isn’t traditional phone banking—it’s a whole new way of talking to voters. Together, we’ll gather authentic insights from communities, use cutting-edge tools to capture what we hear, and share it back with campaigns to strengthen their efforts.
- Why we’re starting early: launching a year ahead of the midterms to build power before campaigns are even off the ground.
- How we’ll go big: calling every voter, not just the ones we normally rely on, so every conversation builds a more complete picture of the electorate.
- How we’ll go deep: practicing empathetic listening and real conversations that uncover voters’ “ground truth,” not just checking boxes on a script.

To Democrat Canvassers: I Tip My Hat to You
Canvassing is much harder than writing political articles for the internet.
It also puts more votes in the ballot box.

Many more votes!

Volunteering for the campaign of #GLPvdA during the last municipal elections in Rotterdam inspired me to try a small pilot for planning and monitoring canvassing with #QGIS and @merginmaps.
In my new video, I show how to set up a similar workflow: simple, practical, and fully #opensource.
