What To Expect.

Phone banks are the most efficient way to reach voters who don't open their door. We'll cover script delivery, objection handling, the digital tools we use to log calls, and the logistics of running a bank from a chapter office.

Bring your laptop or phone. We'll provide pizza, coffee, and the call list. Come away ready to run a bank for your own chapter the following week.
