Thank you for phonebanking

  • Our Midterm Election Phonebank is complete but the WADems are still phonebanking

  • Every call helps!

  • (Theirs is the kind of phonebank where you don’t have to use your own phone)

We will see you next time!

Instructions on how to use OpenVPB, including clicking a link sent by an organizer and entering a code on a website, with a visual of a computer screen displaying the website.

You will be using a computer and your phone to phone bank.

You will set up your computer to see the phone bank screen, and then use your phone to make the calls.

Step 3 of a tutorial on how to use OpenVPB, showing a computer screen with a login page including fields for email and password, a 'Log In' button, and a link to create a new account. Text explains that first-time users need to create an Action ID.

If you do not have an Action ID, you will need to create one. If you don’t remember your Action ID, click on “Don’t remember your password?” and try to reset, using your email.

If you still cannot get in, email us. We do not have access to Action ID information, but we can help you take next steps.

4. After you log in, you will be asked to enter a zip code. You may use your own, or one from the areas that could use extra focus:

Omak — 98841

Oroville — 98844

Tonasket -- 98855

Riverside — 98849

Okanogan — 98840

Conconully — 98819

Nespelem — 99155

Once you have entered your zip, you will see the main phonebank page:

And finally…

Before you make that first call, practice saying the script out loud a few times.

The script contains information we want to convey to the voters. You will probably use the script at first, and then get more natural in your language.

In the course of your conversation, find out if they plan to vote, and click on that survey answer.

Please note:

In order to retain information about who has been contacted, the SURVEY QUESTION MUST BE ANSWERED before you move on to another call.

If you don’t reach a voter OR if you leave a message or text, click the red box under the voter’s name. Choose in the list of reasons why you weren’t able to reach the voter or if you left a message or sent a text.

Click the Save & Next Call button at the bottom of the page when you’re done.
