campaign volunteers
Political ground troops
Campaign volunteers are unpaid workers who support a political candidate or cause.
They perform grassroots tasks like canvassing neighborhoods, making phone calls, distributing literature, and registering voters.
Unlike paid staff, volunteers are motivated by belief in the candidate or issue: The campaign relies heavily on campaign volunteers to knock on doors in swing districts.
