Cut Lists

Create geographic voter segments for targeted canvassing.

What is a Cut List?

A cut list is a subset of voters defined by:

• Geography - A polygon or rectangle drawn on the map
• Filters - Optional criteria like party, contact status, demographics, etc.

Cut lists help you:

• Divide territory among canvassers
• Focus on specific neighborhoods
• Target high-priority voters
• Track progress by area

Creating a Cut List

Method 1: Draw on the Map

1. Go to Cut Lists in the sidebar and click New Cut List
2. Enter a name and optional description at the top
3. Choose your drawing tool:
   • Polygon tool (pentagon icon) - Click to place points, the page subtitle updates to show "Draw a polygon on the map"
   • Rectangle tool (square icon) - Click two corners, a live preview outline shows as you move to the second corner
4. Apply filters using the Filters button (optional)
5. Click Save Cut List when done

Method 2: Create from Demographics

Create cut lists targeting specific voter demographics without drawing:

1. Click New Cut List and select the Demographics tab
2. Choose demographic criteria:
   • Age range - Target specific age groups
   • Party affiliation - Democrats, Republicans, Independents
   • Property size - Filter by acreage/votes
   • Contact history - Never contacted, needs follow-up, etc.
3. Review the matching voters count and save

Editing Polygons

Draggable Points

All polygon and rectangle vertices are always draggable:

• Drag any point to reshape the boundary - works immediately after drawing or when editing an existing cut list
• Voter count updates in real-time as you adjust the boundary
• Use the Redraw button to start fresh
• Use the Clear button to remove all points

Using SRP Division Boundaries

The map displays SRP division boundary lines to help you draw cut lists that align with official SRP districts. Toggle this overlay with the "Show SRP Divisions" checkbox.
