Referendum -> Door-Knocking Round Two

Towards the end of the week, we decided to hit Selly Oak with a second wave of door-knocking because the voting wouldn't have been active the previous week when we visited.

Plus, it served as a reminder to students living in Selly Oak and provided us with the opporutnity to talk them through any technical difficulties.

We also took free muffins and donuts with us to provide students with a little incentive.

It was a great move. The Rangers were remembered from the previous week and students had been given a week to consider the changes before they were prompted by the second wave of door-knocking.

The value of door-knocking has proven its worth in this Referendum and has instigated discussions about having unbiased Rangers for the Exec Elections who can remind students to vote throughout the week. To be continued...
