Last Call Volunteer for Georgia Victory 2014
Georgia Victory is the name of the Coordinated campaign, we are on our Final Push to get people out to vote, whether you can donate half an hour or 40 hours we can accommodate you.
If you can donate half an hour I can give you the information to sign onto hubdialer, which you can use from home, to use hubdialer you need a computer/tablet and phone, and ofc plenty of power for both. Hubdialer automatically sorts through all of the disconnected calls and most of the Not Homes using an algorithm that targets people who we can speak to when they are available, basically when you use hubdialer you spend a lot more time talking to Democrat Voters who would not go to the Polls without you talking to them, the lists do target democrats from around the state, hubdialer gives you the script you can use to talk to people but its you who is talking and that is 10 times more effective than the Robocalls Nathan Deal is using. Hubdialer is the most efficient Phonebanking Method we have, and again you do not need to leave your home to use it.
If you can donate a 2 or 3 Hours you can go to one of the Campaign Field Offices, and sign up to Phone Bank there, They have in addition to Hubdialer Paper lists that you can call, Paper Lists will allow you to call people in your area, you might find Democrats in your own neighborhood who you never knew were democrats, and can give you greater ways to bond. Hubdialer can sometimes break down, it isn't often but it happens, that is where a Paper list can really shine, and additionally when you call the Paper list you help find the Disconnected numbers that we dont need to call again, you find Republicans who vote in democratic primaries who we don't need to call again (You are not required to register with a Party in the state of Georgia, we have an open primary system, you declare which party's primary Ballot you want and you will get it regardless of your party, which primary ballot you ask for is tracked but not who you vote for, that means if you like voting in Republican Primaries then you will likely be labeled as a Republican by the System and will kick you off of our Lists because we don't feel the need to remind Republicans there is an election coming up).
IF you can Donate 4 or more hours, and you have a Car, are Ambulatory, don't mind talking to People Face to Face, then i Suggest you walk into a field office and tell them you want to Canvass, they will set you up with a Partner to Canvass with you, you will never be far from your Partner, you may be across the Hall in an apartment building, across the Street in a Neighborhood or in some cases one Person may drive the other to specific doors where there are Democrats (When Canvassing we are Targeting Specifically Lazy Democrats who don't vote in Midterms so we arn't knocking every door in a neighborhood, and it isn't random), sometimes you have one house that you have to knock that is 5 doors down from the last, that makes it faster to have one person sitting in the Car driving the other to the doors, it works its effective, i have done it myself. Canvassing is the Best method of Communicating with Voters i think if i remember the numbers correctly when you talk to a person face to face they are 40% more likely to go out and vote, that can make a real difference in this election. While Canvassing it is much easier to seem what concerns a Voter is most likely to have, and target them with a speech to suit their needs, if you see little kids running around talk to them about education, if you see a young adult of College age talk to them about the Hope Scholarship. If you see a Single Person without kids hit Economics, talk to them about Ethics. Sometimes you can see someone who cannot get around easily, we send out Absentee Ballot request Forms with every Canvass you can get them to fill out the form on the spot and send it to the Proper Authorities. or you can list their name as needing a drive to the polls.
the Carter Campaign has listed all of the Field Offices their location and Phone Numbers to contact Here:

They may be working on their own effort to Get Out The Vote.
If none of this works for you Send Me a PM tell me the city and county you live in, your Full First and Last Name as is listed on your Voter Registration Form. I can enter you into our system as a volunteer directly, and give you information to use Hubdialer, or Point you to an event in your area. When you walk into an office talk to the field organize they can put you to work immediately i guarantee it. We Canvass from Opening until sundown we call people from 9 AM to 9 PM.
General Election Day is November 4th Early Voting ends TOMORROW! This weekend is our Final Push, if you wait you will be too late i urge you to go vote now if you haven't already, there are lines at every early voting location in the Metro Atlanta Area. If you Put off signing up to volunteer until tomorrow you will be too late! DO IT NOW! Go out there and Knock on doors and on November 4th when we win you will know that you were part of the reason we won, and that will be a high that will last.
If you live in the Gwinnett Area I am bringing my Italian Great Grandmother's Lasagna to the Gwinnett Field Office in Lawrenceville, it is delicious you don't want to miss it.
Finally i want to end this Post by Calling on everyone who reads this Thread to not Just K&R me but to give us your Story of Volunteering, tell us what you are doing to get our wonderful candidates elected, or tell us what you hope and plan to do to get our candidates elected, remember though that time is Short on November 5th it will be too late. If you are Donating Money that is Great! If you have an Interesting Story about how you got involved we want to hear it, if you have a funny canvassing story let us know. Tell us why you are Supporting Jason and Michelle, sure being Democrats gets them in the door, but what part of their platform do you like best, if you don't know, get a good read.
