WELCOME TO PHONE BANKING
WELCOME TO PHONE BANKING
Phone banking is a research - based, successfully proven method of educating our local dem voters about upcoming elections, introducing them to candidates and issues they may know little about. Our calls inform our voters about local races and policies (property taxes, funding for schools, police, etc).
Tell voters about important voting changes
Phone Bank volunteers help the MCDP notify local Democrats about regulations that have changed (Vote by Mail Re-enrollment) and offer assistance when our voters need additional information and resources. Calling Democrats with critical information is an indisputable way to protect VOTER SUPPRESSION!

WHAT PHONE BANKING IS...
Phone Banking is a successful way to reach our fellow Democrats.
A script is provided as well as other pertinent documents. Calls may be made on a cell or landline. Simple training is provided.
Once trained, you receive a link which gets you to your Dem voters. Phone bank coordinators are there for the phone bank volunteers via phone or email ALWAYS. We have a welcoming community of like-minded people who support one another. Phone Banking offers the flexibility to make calls on one’s own schedule, so it’s easy to slot it into the day. Google voice may also be used. At the end of the day you will remember the great calls that you had with voters.
WHAT PHONE BANKING IS NOT
It isn't arguing with strangers over the phone or trying to change someone’s mind.
Phone Banking mostly involves informing voters about upcoming elections and introducing them to candidates and issues they may know little about; not about arguing with strangers over the phone or trying to change someone’s mind about which candidate to vote for. You are only calling Democrats!
Will we be calling Trump/MAGA supporters?
I don't want to get yelled at!
We don't want you to get yelled at either. The people you will be calling are other registed democrats
