Green said the county leadership teams he named today, in concert with the Montgomery County organization previously announced, will help him organize in each county by helping him meet and learn from voters about the issues most important to them. They will help recruit other volunteers, organize local events, putting up signs and working the polls during early voting and Election Day.
