Victory in Washington is within reach

Is there a way to dynamically guide the robocall based on responses so far? E.g., pressed support Ron Paul, pressed not registered, inform that the last day to register (online) is today, etc.?

Yes, but it is more effective to follow up with a live caller. They are getting the other information via recording and text message, though.

With how low voter turnout was and how many voters have seemed to be unaware of the actual caucus time/process (or even that there is no primary this year)
add to that the lagging enthusiasm with this electoral process right now (and with Romney in general)
and voter turnout shouldn't be expected to be high.

Today is a chance to make an impact, Thank You to everyone who has/is contributing funds and calls.

I called 25 numbers this morning and the results were very good:

10 Supporters

10 Voice Mails

5 No Answer / Bad Numbers

Of the 10 supporters 5 say they will attend and 5 can't attend.

I had to spend some time with all 5 who say they will attend to figure out where their locations were.

I copied the values of the "Ron Paul Supporter" column of the 1400+ line spread sheet that is supposed to have values of:

blank - not called
Y - RP supporter
N - not a supporter
M - maybe a supporter
VM - left a voice mail

into my own excel spread sheet, then imported into sql server, and then queried the data and grouped by the values of the column. At this rate we need a lot more people calling to get these 1400+ numbers called. Here are the results:

Ron Paul Supporter? column Total
-------------------------- -----------
blank (not called) 506

VM (voice mail) 295

NA (no answer) 132

Y (yes) 88

- (dash probably not called) 52

N (no) 50

M 7

not called
reserved for 7 different callers 222


non-standard values 36

non-standard values itemized:

? 2
?? 2

call back 1
Call later 1
Calling bk 1

don't call 2

Hang up 1
hang-up 4
hung up 7

lives in SD 1

N? 1

NO SRV 1

VM full 2
wrong # 1

X 1

Yes-Busy Call Back 1


So it looks like we've identified 88 supporters. I don't have the breakdown on how many say they're going to show up. Its probably 1/2.

We're nearly half way there, and we're just a bit closer to earning the matching $250, come on folks lets dig deep and carry this over the line for Washington and the win.

 

[RPit]

I personally think this is the best use of money I've ever seen in politics.

Ron Paul is doing great with delegates and has the potential to win the nomination.
He needs to win a state to gain undeniable legitimacy.
These Robopolls have a proven track record of identifying NEW Ron Paul supporters incredibly cheaply.
We know there is potential for x new supporters given y amount of money.
Robbie's done the math on turnout and polling. He says $10,000 gets Ron Paul his historic first win.
Repeat: Ron Paul can win an entire state now for $10,000 more dollars. We spent millions on other states and haven't won yet.

Let's get him $10,000!

is it too late for a 10K money bomb....

It's only been 4 hours and more than halfway raised. Although we are running up against registration cutoff time of 11:59pm, but ideal calling time is coming up -- early evening.

Combining feedback from multiple call centers (including our own volunteers)

What do you mean by "call centers"?

 

[PolicyReader]

Where do we stand on the fundraiser for today? How close to the full $10,000 are we?

 

[RPit]

What do you mean by "call centers"?

We don't have nearly enough volunteers to call the thousands of people. What do you expect us to do then, call center is the other alternative, no?
