Precinct Chair Phone Banks
Precinct Chairs:
Would you like to make calls to your precinct using 6 phone lines in one room, and invite your neighbors, friends, and family to help with the calling?
TDWCC has a Get Out The Vote office with 6 dedicated phone lines available for your use.
As Precinct Chairs, you know our success in November is dependent on identifying Democrats now so that we can turn them out to vote. We also need to eliminate bad numbers from VAN so we don’t waste time calling them later. Now is the time we need to be making those calls!
Most precincts have approximately 500-1,000 people in Texas VAN with phone numbers but no Party ID. Sound like a lot? A phone bank of approximately 5-6 volunteers for 3 hours can rock out that many calls. We’ve done it!
What you do:
· Look at the TDWCC calendar on this website and pick a date and time something is not already scheduled. Plan to call on weekday evenings and weekend afternoons when people tend to be at home.
· E-mail gotv@tdwcc.org to request that date and time. Give us a couple weeks’ notice if you can to allow everyone to prepare.
· Recruit up to 5 volunteers to phone bank on that day and time with you.
What TDWCC will do:
· Have at the TDWCC office everything you need – 6 dedicated phone lines, instructions for callers, voter ID phone script, calling lists, and even bottled water!
· Have a TDWCC person there at the office with you to answer any questions and enter your calling data into Texas VAN.
The TDWCC office is located at 2828 W. Parker Road, Suite 101B in Plano. It is on the South side of Parker, a little East of Independence.
