The STAND Election Guide, designed by and for small-town and rural voters for two decades, breaks down confusing ballot measures and election-time rhetoric, making tough issues accessible through our shared values of democracy and human dignity.

We invite you, ROP friends and supporters, human dignity leaders, and small-town organizers, to have conversations this election season. ROP groups have a long history of engaging our communities in critical thinking and democratic dialogue, and nothing will slow us down. On this page, you will find:

• PDF and web versions in English and Spanish of our 2024 STAND Guide.
• Our suggestions for how to bring the STAND Guide into your community, start conversations, and enfranchize voters

We hope these resources will be helpful! If you’d like to talk through ideas or have questions, feel free to call us and talk it through.

2024 STAND Election Guide Resources for you to use!

The PDF versions of the STAND Guide are available now!

Here are some ideas for how to get the 2024 STAND Election Guide into the hands of your community members, start conversations, and enfranchise voters:

1. Consider your options.

• Take a moment to read about voter conversations and glean lessons from other human dignity leaders doing this work in rural Oregon. Download our conversation tool here.
• Decide how many Election Guides you’d like to order in English and in Spanish.

2. Decide how you will deliver Election Guides to your community.

• Will you go door-to-door to knock and drop guides when ballots arrive between October 19th and 25th?
• Will you mail Election Guides to your contact list?
• What about pulling a list of voters from the Voter Action Network (with ROP’s help) that you could start a longer conversation with?
• Will you hand out Election Guides at ballot forums, civics trainings, candidate forums, town halls, ballot parties or other public gatherings? We encourage you to have a plan for personalized delivery!

3. Reach out to ROP for support!

• If you want to talk through ideas, feel free to email ROP at office@rop.org or call us at (503)-543-8417. We would love to help you figure out your delivery plan!
