Voter call .org is PERFECT! Do it ASAP
Edited on Sun Oct-24-04 12:15 PM by goclark
I signed up to call registered voters at http://www.votercall.org/
I had no idea it would be so easy.It is non partisan and targets voters from minority and or poor neighborhoods.

I can't encourage you enough!

They give you ten names at a time, you call those ten and you can sit at your computer and check the boxes...home, not home left message etc.

I called all ten. Left messages for 3
Spoke to the mother of one.
Nice conversations.
All but one of the ones that I called were African American.
We connected immediately.
They were happy I called and volunteered that they were going to vote. They were all glad that I called.

They were happily surprised that I took the time to call them all the way from California!

They lived in Florida, GA, KY, VA

Took me about 20 minutes and I'll click in to my next ten when I finish some chores.

PLEASE do it, it is so rewarding and computer friendly.:bounce:

6. And it's Sunday so rates for cell phones are down!



Even if they are not home, if you can leave a message on the answering machine, that is a great effort.

They seem to be really impressed that someone would call them from another state!

Let's keep it kicked..
