Dedicated volunteers hit over 500 doors today. What have you done?? Without volunteers we will lose this race. It is our race to lose without a solid GoTV effort. Please help out!

I added my 100 calls for the day to the total in the OP. Does anyone else have calls that need to be added to the counter?

Making calls right now. I just emailed and said send me over a list, and I got 100 in front of me. Going to try and do these before 9pm, the cutoff time...

Edit: Since I first posted this I made 32 calls, talked to maybe 10 people, so alot of times you will be leaving a message from a script. Just posting this for any people considering making these calls - it's very easy. Going to take a 5 minute break and then make more. This does make a difference, talked to a few people who really like Justin and are now going to his website. It makes a difference, and who knows how many others will hear the voice messages and hear his name again or for the first time, you never know...

Just Did 50 calls, add it to the list!

Going to do the other 50, maybe more tomorrow, getting sort of late, but very good response today from some callers. A few were thankful for hearing a real voice and were genuinely scincere about taking down some information to check him out and have been hearing alot of good things about him. Very encouraging.

I have a list of another 100 calls to make for tomorrow for the Plainfield Meet and Greet....and then I assume it switches over to good old-fashioned GOTV calls for the weekend.

Justin Amash Would you like to be a part of this campaign to empower people, not government? I need your help to get out the vote on Monday and Tuesday. Please click here to sign up: http://amashforcongress.wufoo.com/forms/justin-amash-for-congress-gotv-signup-form/.

He posted this today, and is looking for people to make calls....

I just signed up for a list to get sent over on Monday (night before the election).

Bump!

I've signed up for calls today and monday, I haven't received any information from the campaign today about making calls? Not sure why.

I second that. I was supposed to make calls this afternoon, but didn't receive any information or communication from the campaign. Perhaps they have so many willing volunteers that they don't need us? I hope that is it, because that would definitely be a good problem to have.

Same here about not receiving any names. Hopefully we'll get them tomorrow for Monday's calls.

That's strange, maybe Biles1234 has an answer to that.

Meanwhile, here are Amy's numbers, I'm sure it's not a problem posting them...

Office: 616-719-1935

Just received an e-mail from Amy and she notified me that the campaign is basically done with phone calls, as their main method of GOTV will be door-to-door. She apologized for not contacting us today regarding our signing up for phone calls.

I notified her that if there is anything else we can do to please contact us.

Until then, we should focus our attention on promoting Amash on this forum and others and trying to help him reach his fundraising goal of $500,000 before the Primary, as he requested on his Facebook page. I have started a thread in "General Politics" , so please feel free to bump it up!

Agreed. Well, I guess it's a good sign if the campaign has everything covered..

It is a curious method and I do hope it works out. I just figured they would be doing GOTV phone calls and door-to-door leading up the Primary. It's good to hear, though, that everything seems to be covered.

Hopefully Tuesday will be a day of celebration!

I don't think that would be fair to say.

Just got my list of 100 calls to make throughout the day. Maybe I'll be able to get done early and make some more calls later.

If you haven't already signed up to make calls, do it now! :D

It's easy and a great way to help out the campaign.
