Romulus Canvasser

The walk list, in your canvasser's pocket.

Canvasser is the mobile app for the doors. Turf arrives as a map and a walk list, the script is on screen when the door opens, and the knock is on the file before the next porch. It comes with every Romulus campaign.

  • Nothing to install

    It runs in the phone's browser. A volunteer taps a link, signs in, and starts walking.

  • Sorted like the street

    Lists arrive ordered by address, with a suggested route between households.

  • Survives dead spots

    No signal at the door? Submissions queue on the phone and sync when coverage returns.

  • Speaks HQ

    Turf, scripts, and survey questions come straight from the campaign. Answers go straight back.

In the field

A shift, start to finish

  1. 01

    Turf lands

    An assignment shows up as a map and a walk list, sorted the way the street is — no printing, no handoff meeting.

  2. 02

    Walk the route

    Household markers and a suggested path keep the next door obvious, even for a volunteer who's never seen the block.

  3. 03

    Knock and log

    The script and its follow-up questions are on screen; outcome, notes, and answers take a few taps at the door.

  4. 04

    HQ sees it

    Every knock flows to the voter file as it happens, and staff watch the turf fill in on the live map.

The app

Built for a phone held in one hand

Turf

A map that knows the plan

  • Household markers
  • Walking route
  • Address-sorted list

Every household in the turf is a marker on the map, the list mirrors the street order, and a suggested route saves a new volunteer from zig-zagging the neighborhood.

At the door

The script, with the follow-ups

  • Branching questions
  • Per-turf scripts
  • Saved per voter

The campaign writes branching scripts and survey questions; the app walks the canvasser through them and files every answer on the voter's record.

Logging

Logged before the gate closes

  • One-tap outcomes
  • Notes
  • Household not-home

Knock, call, or text — outcome and notes in a few taps, and a single tap marks a whole household not home. No clipboard, no transcription, no Sunday-night data entry.

Back at HQ

The field, live on the staff map

  • Live GPS
  • In-app messages
  • Offline queue
  • Staff approval

Location pings every 15–30 seconds put each canvasser on the staff map with doors knocked and last activity. Staff can message the field directly, and offline submissions wait for approval before they touch the file.

By the numbers

Built for the pace of a shift

  • 0 paper walk sheets between the door and the database — what's logged at the porch is the record.
  • 1 tap marks a whole household not home and moves the canvasser on to the next door.
  • 15–30s between location pings, so the live map at HQ is never guessing where the field is.

The walk list is sacred.

Volunteer hours are the scarcest thing a campaign has. Every minute the app saves at the door is another door — that arithmetic is the whole reason Canvasser exists.
