canvassing

Canvassing is a method used in political campaigns or community outreach where volunteers or staff go door-to-door, make phone calls, or use other approaches to communicate with people. The goal is to share information about a candidate, issue, or event, gather opinions or support, and answer questions. It helps campaigners understand voters' views, encourage participation, and build relationships. Canvassing is a direct, personal way to engage with the community, increase awareness, and influence opinions through conversations rather than mass media.
