Who are we calling for?

Ilya Sheyman is narrowly leading in the Illinois-10 Democratic congressional primary against a conservative businessman. But he'll only win if he has a strong grassroots volunteer program.

Our Call Out The Vote program lets you make calls to key voters in Ilya's district from your home, and it's easy to use.

How do I phonebank?

You'll be trained on the system at the beginning of your shift, before you start making calls. Make sure you dial in to the conference call number listed on www.CallOutTheVote.com when your shift starts.

In a nutshell, it uses your computer and your phone at the same time (or a computer and a computer headset, if you choose) to call voters for you. You don't have to dial numbers, and the system screens out dead lines and answering machines, making efficient use of your time.

Here's a video of how the system, ImpactDialing.com, works:

What do I need to call voters from home?

How long are shifts?

Call shifts are two hours long. We ask you stay for the entire shift.

Who are we calling for?

We're calling for bold progressive Ilya Sheyman, who's running in a competitive primary against a conservative Democrat in Illinois' 10th district. The primary is on March 20th.

Where is the training call number?

If you're not able to see the conference call number up on your right, it means there's no active training call. But if you'd like to write the number down for reference, here it is: 760.569.7676, access code: 209986. Please make sure to dial in a few minute before your shift starts.
