When your Neighborhood Council holds meetings and events, it’s a good idea to let attendees know that they can get the latest Elections news for your Council if they sign up for your email list.

Once you have those emails in hand, you can use NationBuilder to easily create and manage Elections-related events. If you haven’t used it before, NationBuilder is a community organizing platform that’s a powerful tool you can use to engage your stakeholders at Elections time – or anytime.  

Before creating an event, you’ll need to first set up the list of people you want to invite. See how to create a list of people in NationBuilder or add people to an existing list:
