Does anyone know who to contact and how if we get people wanting to go to caucus to vote for Ron but don't have the transportation? It's not like Qdog can pick them all up! There should be something in the script about needing a ride so the local campaign can arrange for that. Anything like that as of now?
In NH, the GOTV has started and we are also providing bumper stickers, yard signs, etc for supporters contacted.

When phonebanking, even if it's not on the script TELL EVERYONE YOU CALL TO BRING THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS (17 years and older) to the caucus with them. They can register AT THE CAUCUS (bring ID).

NO

I would argue that if you're making GOTV calls for the campaign, you really should follow the script. These are Ron Paul supporters we're calling.

We should be calling every single Ron Paul supporter that we've identified. We don't want to tell everyone to bring their parents and grandparents to the polls, especially within the context of the official Ron Paul GOTV. There are people we AREN'T calling. Those are the people we've identified as NOT RON PAUL SUPPORTERS.

We can do quite well if we just got all males 18-29 to the caucus. That's not the same thing as all people who happen to be friends and family of the the Ron Paul Supporters we've identified.

A good rule for things like this is just to do what the official campaign says.

A GOTV ad blitz will be a great supplement to the phone calls. Please see my sig. We have an amazing plan to increase Dem/Indy turnout.

This X 1000

Also might need a recent utility bill just to be on the safe side to prove you're a resident.

Can we change the title of this thread - something to state that PFH is now doing GOTV

 

[thehighwaymanq]

This needs to be front-page. Nothing is as important as this! As I said on Facebook:

After all the years of following Dr. Paul, after the late-night reading sessions of "End the Fed", after the defending Ron Paul from all the heinous media attacks, after sitting and making hundreds of calls a day, checking The Daily Paul 15 times a day, after donating pay-checks and attending events, after all the work we have all been through over the last few years it all comes down to today and tomorrow.

We need every single person to be on the phones today as much as they possibly can. This is the time where you are needed most! Invest two more days in this campaign, and watch us continue this revolution farther than anyone thought.

God bless you all! You are inspiring and incredible. CALL TO WIN!

Keep this thread at the top of the page.

MOD: Change the title something like YOU can Phone From Home to GOTV!

REMEMBER: TELL EVERYONE YOU CALL TO BRING THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS (17 years and older) to the caucus with them. They can register AT THE CAUCUS (bring ID).

If you call just 500 people in 2 days, and convince each of them to bring 2 people with them to the caucus, you just won Ron Paul an extra percentage point!!!

We need to stick to whatever script they give us. While your idea has merit, the people that have designed PFH are professionals and have had great success with this in the past. It is far more helpful to submit your idea to the people monitoring the PFH Facebook group for inclusion/approval before telling people to do something that you believe to be a good idea.

We are volunteers, not campaign experts. Have some faith that the people who have designed this program know what is the best thing for us to say to voters.

Stick to the script!!

I almost always do, but I am going to slip this in to all the passionate RP supporters. It's too close not to.

Literally a couple hundred votes could make the difference. The Insider Advantage poll has us down by 300 votes!!!!!!!!!

All of a sudden call from home is important because it's a last-minute shot at IA?
We've been calling NH and NV for quite awhile, laying ground work.

If you sign up to call IA -- I hope you continue to help with "phone from home"
by calling the other states as well.

ANY CALL FOR DR. PAUL IS A GOOD CALL!
Let's do this thing!

Vcheroik,

I've been with PfH since the beginning as well, but I see why some people might be turned off cause it's kind of like cold calling. With Iowa, we will not be cold-calling, so a lot of the negativity is gone. Also, when a couple hundred votes will make the difference, people will do everything they can to win, so I can understand why it's more popular (hopefully) now.

Don't sweat it. You're a hero. Over 8,000 calls and sevaral grassroots project made possible because of your donation. I've noticed. You are a superstar.

Definitely - thank you so much for your amazing commitment, Vechorik! It's people like you who will propel RP to the win.

Let's do this thing for the next 2 days - no excuses! Take off from work or school if you have to.

I'm not trying to be rude in any way, but what makes you think that you know better than the people that are running this? They have been asking us from the beginning to stick to the script. Why is it such a hard concept for people to understand? If every one that thought they had a good idea, or a better way of doing things went off script then we wouldn't be where we are at today. Just trust that these people who run this thing know better than you do and just read the darn script for pete's sake.

 

[freedomforever!]

Hmmm...right now Phone From Home isn't making GOTV calls, just regular surveys right now.

 

[freedomforever!]

Whoops - didn't mean to write "right now" twice.

I hope the new script says something like "bring your friends and family to caucus" too.

I hope it does as well, but if it doesn't I am not going to add anything to it.

Incidentally, 11:30 EST was the usual time we started calling IA, so the GOTV might be then. I would log off and on if you are making NH calls at that time.
