The approach for the voter outreach and education was to meet Redwood City voters, distribute the informational brochure and verbally reinforce the message of mailing in the ballot. In order to reach voters, the outreach consultant and City staff identified key activities throughout the city for which there might be a large number of registered voters in attendance. The consultant attended events, met with community members, contacted neighborhood associations and other efforts to share information about the all-mail ballot. The consultant conducted the outreach from September 21, 2015 through the week of October 26, 2015. With all the efforts combined, the consultant spoke to approximately 1,500-2,000 people at a one-on-one level. Through all the combined outreach from one-on-one conversations to drop- offs at the churches and other places, approximately 1,800 to 2,000 brochures were distributed. The number of brochures distributed and the number of people engaged is not a direct correlation. Except for the drop-offs at churches and businesses, many more individuals were approached than brochures distributed; approximately 3:1. Some individuals would not take the brochure because by talking with the consultant, they had received the knowledge and information, or they knew they had the information at home. For every person who engaged in conversation or took the brochure to learn more learn about the new process, there were other individuals who shared that they already voted by mail or reacted as if the voting by mail was an option and they were not interested. 5 Envirocom Communications Strategies, LLC— Summary Memorandum 11 RESO.#15461 MUFF#307
