Yesterday, on the first full day of Get Out The Vote, we set an all-time record for phone calls made using our online voter contact tool: 431,645 calls in a single day. While volunteers in key battleground states canvassed neighborhoods by foot and crowded into offices to phonebank, grassroots phonebankers from across the country pitched in by making phone calls from home and talking to voters, one at a time.
Our goal for online calling today: reach one million phone calls for the weekend by 9:00 PM Pacific tonight.
We've broken countless records over the course of this campaign, but we've rarely had the time to reflect on just what that means. What it means is that something is happening that's never happened before, ever. What it means is that this election, this campaign for the presidency, this moment, is different from all the others.
Whether you've been helping out for months or have never made a call before, you can get started in minutes making calls to any of the battleground states. Once you log in, we'll provide you with a detailed script and a targeted list of voters to call. You'll be talking to supporters and likely supporters, providing them with information on when, where and how to vote, as well as reminding them of what's at stake in this election and the importance of their vote.
Call time starts at 10:00 AM local time today, which means you can get started calling Virginia, Florida, Ohio, North Carolina, Indiana and New Hampshire right now:
For everyone out there making phone calls to voters in a battleground state, let us know what you're hearing on the phones today, how it's going, and any tips you may have for fellow callers...
