Friend,
As you know, Georgia’s Senate runoff elections are critically important. On Jan. 5, Georgia voters will decide which party controls the U.S. Senate.
These runoff elections will determine how we respond to and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, a national systemic racism crisis and the erosion of our democratic norms — that’s why we need your help.
We are doing all we can to ensure that January’s voter turnout is just as high as in the record-breaking November election or even higher. But we need your support to reach as many voters as possible.
Next week, we are holding two virtual phone banking events to help assist get-out-the-vote (GOTV) efforts in Georgia and the more volunteers we have, the more potential voters we will be able to reach!
Georgia Absentee Voting Power Hours
*Note: The Virtual Phone Bank will be open from 3-8 p.m. Eastern in order to accommodate all schedules. Volunteers are welcomed to participate at their convenience for as long as their schedules allow during this time frame.
Using your own phone (or any other internet-connected device), you can help Georgia voters complete absentee applications that often provide a faster and safer voting experience. Our Virtual Phone Bank will provide you with a complete script, connect you directly to voters and give you easy-to-follow instructions to record the results of your conversation.
New: We are excited to announce that we’re introducing a service called VPB Connect for all upcoming Virtual Phone Banks. This new feature lets callers click-to-dial from within any web browser on any device: computer, tablet, smartphone, etc. With just one click, you’ll be connected to Georgia voters directly from your browser. And instead of relying on volunteers’ own phone numbers, VPB Connect automatically uses an Atlanta area code and specified caller ID.
Every single minute our supporters contribute to GOTV efforts is greatly appreciated by our team and our partners working hard to turn out the vote in Georgia. By contributing your time, you’re joining a national movement that helped produce the highest voter turnout in our nation’s history this November. We have the power to finish this election season strong, and we hope you will join us to make sure each and every Georgia voter’s voice is heard.
In solidarity,
Your friends at the SPLC
