To improve the canvassing wikipedia page, Ella Grace and I are going to update the effectiveness portion with new found research from 2020+ elections and methods. I have found a few sources that talk about the effectiveness of canvassing in other countries and how it might apply to the US and American elections. Our other member, Luke, is going to edit the citations and make sure that they are all correct. Luke will also work on gathering research for the early history of canvassing and voter outreach.

By utilizing newer technological resources like WhatsApp, voter turnout has increased among younger voters in Brazil.

I like all of the things you are doing with this page! I would suggest bringing in more recent examples of canvassing and would also suggest maybe adding how it can affect us in our personal lives.

In more recent studies done in 2020, we see that phone calls and canvassing have really no effect on the overall voter turn out, even for those who are in areas of high numbers of undecided voters and voters who are considered to be persuadable.
