Sun. Nov. 1st - Get Out The Vote! - Elect Joe Biden - Phonebanking and Training

Join the Vegetarian & Vegan Democrats for Biden-Harris Virtual Phone Bank via Zoom. The Zoom link will be sent to you the day of the event, Sunday November 1st.

We are calling swing states to Get Out The Vote (GOTV). This is how New York Area Vegetarians & Vegans can really make a difference in this election--with outreach to priority states.

IMPORTANT: If you are new to phonebanking and need training, please join us on Zoom at 1:00pm or 3:00pm or 5:00pm. We will have three group trainings, via Zoom, at 1:00pm, 3:00pm and 5:00pm. After the 25-minute training, you will make "Get Out The Vote" calls to a swing state.

Experienced phonebankers who do not need to be trained on the ThruTalk/Dem Dialer phone system may join us on Zoom any time between 1:00pm and 7:00pm and stay as long as you like, or leave when you need to. We will be using ThruTalk/Dem Dialer. We encourage you to arrive early (1:00pm) and stay late (7:00pm) if you can.

IMPORTANT: Each volunteer will need both a phone and a laptop/desktop computer. We will be using the amazingly fast and productive ThruTalk dialing system. YOU CANNOT USE AN IPAD. YOU CANNOT USE SAFARI AS YOUR BROWSER. (You can use either Chrome or Firefox as your browser - NOT Safari.)

WE WILL HAVE THREE VIRTUAL TRAININGS VIA ZOOM, AT 1:00pm, 3:00pm, and 5:00pm. IF YOU ARE NEW AND NEED TRAINING, PLEASE JOIN US AT 1:00pm, 3:00pm or 5:00pm. If you are experienced with ThruTalk, join us anytime and begin making calls right away.

We especially recommend arriving at 1:00pm and staying through 7:00pm if you can be with us for the whole six hours. But staying for any amount of time is great, and we hugely appreciate your efforts and your heroism. Thank you!

IMPORTANT - HOW WE WILL MEET VIRTUALLY

On the morning of Sunday, November 1st, everyone who has RSVP'd yes for this event will be emailed the Zoom link for this online virtual training and phonebanking. You will also be emailed that same link once again at 12 noon. The training will occur at 1:00pm (also 3:00pm and 5:00pm -- please see above) on Sunday, November 1st.

Let's end our national and international nightmare. Let's remove the incompetent, racist, climate-change-denying, self-aggrandizing buffoon in the White House, and usher in a new era of compassion and competence. The United States president should be a world leader, actively partnering with other world leaders to solve our planetary problems, and not someone who is -- justifiably -- an object of worldwide derision and scorn. Trump is marching in reverse, and attempting to take the world along with him. We can do so much better. And we will.
