Walk Packets

Walk packets split a voter list into smaller, assignable sections that a volunteer can complete in a single shift. Each packet belongs to a parent list, and progress logged in any packet automatically rolls up to the list.

01
Where it begins

Start from a list.

Managers keep the parent list as the source of truth. Each packet narrows that universe to one assigned slice. Map, list, contact updates, notes, and exports all stay scoped to the packet, while progress rolls up to the list.

From list to assignment

Draw it. Name it. Assign it.

Walk packets always come from a list. Build a list of voters first, then carve assignments out of it on the map.

Open any voter list and switch to the Walk Packets tab. From there you’ll see every existing packet with its progress and assigned teammates, so you can see what’s already in motion before carving out a new one.

Create Walk Packet dialog with a polygon drawn on the map selecting 137 voters

Create Walk Packet — 137 voters selected via polygon.

01
Start from a list.
Open any voter list, then switch to the Walk Packets tab.
02
Draw a polygon or click homes.
The selection panel updates the running count and flags the 5,000-voter cap. Only unassigned voters appear, so you can't accidentally add the same household to multiple packets.
03
Name it and assign teammates.
Pick one or many from the team. The name becomes the card label and PDF title.
04
Save.
Selected voters are pinned to the packet. The parent list stays untouched.
03
Door to door

Walk the block.

Volunteers open the packet on a phone, walk the assigned area, and tap a single button at each door. Every household shows on the map, color-coded by outcome, so the next house is always one glance away.

04
Log the door

Six taps. The whole conversation.

Every door is one of four outcomes. Add a yard-sign request and a quick note when it matters. Results sync the moment you tap.

Support
Likely to vote for your side. The door turns green on the map and counts toward your support total.
Oppose
Voting the other way. Logged so you can skip the household on follow-up walks instead of knocking again.
Not home
Nobody answered. Stays on the pending list so the next shift can come back and try again.
Undecided
Listened, didn't commit. A natural target for a second contact, mailer, or phone call later.
Yard sign
Add the address to your delivery list. Pulls into the yard-sign export for whoever drives the route.
Notes
Capture anything the buttons can't — a question for staff, an access issue, a follow-up to remember.
05
Close the loop

One packet. Two clean handoffs.

Most teams skip paper entirely and run the whole packet on the phone. The printable PDF and CSV export are there when you want them.

Optional · PDF
Printable packet

For teams that still like paper. Configure title, sort order, page breaks, even/odd split, precinct info, and map context before generating. Skip it entirely if your volunteers prefer the app.

Trust point: deleting a packet only removes the assignment. Voters stay on the parent list.

Day-to-day

Track and manage packets.

Each packet card displays:

  • Total voters in the packet
  • Contact outcomes (Support, Oppose, Undecided, Not Home)
  • Remaining uncontacted count

As canvassers log results, both the packet and the parent list update in real time. You can rename, reassign, or delete packets at any time. Deleting a packet only removes the assignment — voters return to the unassigned pool on the parent list, so they can be added to a different packet later.
