Phone banked a few times before and it was extremely rewarding to be around other supporters, and to talk to individuals and change a couple people's minds. It's very easy to do in groups (preferable) or on your own, swallow your misgivings or anxieties and get Bernie elected!

stephenfry posted:is there any sensible way to "profile" people when phonebanking? I know I want to kneejerk bring up Biden + NAFTA at every opportunity in michigan, but it might not persuade affluent people I just ask people what their top issues are/what is most important in a candidate

stephenfry posted:thanks for the smart answers Tonight was a really good night on the phone for me, I sometimes get a few people who had not thought about who they were voting for yet and didn't have any particular pet issues. For those folks I just expound on my own top 3 issues climate/m4a/worker representation for a minute and this always seems to make people say "yea actually that all sounds really good" and each time they've committed to Bernie by the end of the call

I can also rely on at least one good prank response each time I phone bank. Tonight it was some guys pretending like I'd dialed a secure line at Area 51 and they were demanding to know my name and supervisor. At the end of the call they said they were going to have my position traced in 30 seconds so I responded "woah that's pretty cool, vote for Bernie on Tuesday!" *click*

I wish my state (NY) wasn't so late in the season so I could go knock on doors and win folks over with my charm sooner, until then all I can do is donate and phone bank for Bernard who will win Phone or text banking is easy and low stress, do it fools, you'll be glad you did
