Petition Circulator Opportunity

Grand Rapids MI

Description

I am running a grassroots political campaign as a progressive Democrat, and I am looking for someone to gather signatures from registered voters in the Grand Rapids area. This is a contract opportunity on a short-term basis. The job is simple: Go door-to-door, or public spaces with foot traffic, and then ask for registered voters to sign a nominating petition. If they are not registered, register them to vote and have them sign the petition. Hours are from 11 AM to 7 PM on Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Daily quota is expected to be 60 signatures per day at an average rate of 1 per 6 minutes; which is very doable because you should be able to finish a days' worth of signatures in as little as 6 hours. Most petitioners can do 480 to 600 in a 7 day week, but this job only requires 240 in a 4 day week. Quota is the minimum valid signatures. Expect some to be invalidated and shoot for more if you can (70 or 80 are suggested). Only whole sheets of 10 are accepted, but partials carry over to the next day. Pay is $15 per hour if quota is met, otherwise, it is $1 per signature. 1099-NEC Non-Employee Compensation. Weekly pay on Thursdays.
