The Republican National Committee announced Monday a nationwide initiative to register voters at gas stations to highlight the rising fuel prices at the pump.
The campaign began over the weekend as GOP activists registered voters in Arizona, North Carolina and New York. The RNC says more voter registration drives are expected in battleground states and districts including California, Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin.
“These #NCBoots went out to the gas station this morning to register voters and recruit new team members! Excited to see this grow out to more surrounding gas stations! #LeadRight,” tweeted Isaac Wetherill, regional field director for the North Carolina Republican Party.
New York Republicans registered voters in Manhasset, on Long Island, where they passed out anti-Biden stickers and waved pro-GOP signs by a Mobil gas station.
“Skyrocketing gas prices, record inflation and violent crime are causing even the most liberal New Yorkers to flee from the Democrat Party. What better place to bring them into the fold than after they just spent $100 filling their tank?”
