YES: An on-the-ground relational organizing experiment is encouraging (but v challenging to study, see the paper for details) 7/9
YES! Even people who are not already active organizers can be prompted to get their loved ones to register: 6/9
YES! Qualitative evidence suggests that social ties have lots of tools available to them to engage even skeptical voters 5/9
YES! Mapping relationships across admin records suggests many system impacted people are connected to others who are active voters... 4/9
But would it even work? System impacted people are often surrounded by other non-voters who have high skepticism of the state... 3/9
We ask: How can system impacted people be (re)incorporated into electoral politics?
We argue: The politically active loved ones of system impacted people are powerful mobilizers in their communities! 2/9
