Friend,
There are just a few weeks left until Georgia's historic Senate runoff elections on Jan. 5. That means the coming days are a critical period for voters to submit their absentee ballots and take advantage of early voting opportunities.
These runoff elections are incredibly important — control of the U.S. Senate is on the line, and the results will determine how we tackle the nation's most pressing issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic and our national systemic racism crisis. That’s why we're asking you to take action.
We need your support to reach as many voters as possible. Georgia voters flocked to the polls in record-breaking numbers in November, and we need your help to make sure January's turnout is just as high.
Next week, we are holding two virtual phone banking events to help assist get-out-the-vote (GOTV) efforts in Georgia.
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
