ABOUT THE WASHINGTON STATE DEMOCRATS COORDINATED CAMPAIGN
The Washington State Democrats Coordinated Campaign strives to lead an innovative, data-driven voter
mobilization program through the implementation of a state-wide, direct voter contact effort which seeks

philosophy of enduring strength through long-term grassroots capacity development. The Coordinated
Campaign will focus on the election of the Democratic nominee for President, as well as the re-election of
US Senator Patty Murray and Governor Jay Inslee, but will help guide candidate campaign activity up
