Show Notes
Ivan Pardo, Founder of Solidarity Tech used his organizing platform to successfully manage the over 100,000 volunteers for the campaign of Zohran Mamdani for Mayor of New York. This platform was originally designed to be multilingual from its inception to organize non-English-speaking rideshare drivers. While technology was key to the Mamdani success, the authenticity of the candidate and message discipline were key to connecting with volunteers and voters.
We talk about:
- Deep organizing at scale focusing on getting volunteers to commit and show up for shifts, re-engage and recruit their friends
- Converting social media engagement into volunteer sign-ups
- Why multilingual capabilities are essential for reaching diverse communities
- Bridging online enthusiasm with offline action
