Call Voters

Phone banking is the practice of calling voters in a public database and following a script to discuss an election or specific candidate. It’s highly effective, second only to in-person canvassing for increasing voter turnout. And even when you don’t end up converting a fence-sitter to a voter, you are collecting valuable data that campaigns and grassroots orgs can use to target more effectively as it gets closer to the election.

The great thing about phone banking is that you don’t need to be an expert about the candidate or the local area—the script will provide you with all the information you need. The sheer volume of voters who need to be contacted before Election Day means every volunteer hour spent is impactful.

As long as you want. During an Hour of Action, you'll be calling voters for approximately 45 minutes.
