State Room Arizona 009: Joseph Kavetsky | Turning Point Action | Ballot Chasing: Winning Elections

In Episode 9 of The State Room, Scot Mussi sits down with Joseph Kovertski, Alliance Director Administrator for Turning Point Action, to discuss one of the most important—and often misunderstood—parts of modern politics: ballot chasing.As Arizona heads toward the 2026 election cycle, conservatives are investing heavily in voter mobilization efforts designed to ensure supporters not only register to vote, but actually return their ballots. Joseph breaks down how Turning Point Action has built one of the largest ballot chase operations in the state and why the ground game has become critical in close elections.The conversation explores how ballot chasing works, the difference between relational organizing and traditional canvassing, how targeted voter outreach is conducted, and why building trust within local communities is essential to increasing turnout. They also discuss lessons learned from the Left’s organizing model, the importance of engaging low-propensity voters, and how conservatives are working to close the turnout gap.Looking ahead to 2026, Scot and Joseph discuss the challenges and opportunities facing Arizona conservatives, the role ballot chasing will play in future elections, and how grassroots activists can get involved in helping shape the outcome.If you want to understand the mechanics behind voter turnout, political mobilization, and the ground game that often decides elections, this episode is a must-watch.🎙 Guest: Joseph Kovertski, Alliance Director Administrator, Turning Point Action🎙 Host: Scot Mussi📍 Topic: Ballot Chasing: The Ground Game That Wins ElectionsSubscribe for more conversations on Arizona policy, politics, and the issues impacting your community.www.azfree.org(Host: Arizona Free Enterprise Club)
