Call Voters with our Call Team
Calling voters is the most powerful tool we have to Get Out The Vote in a pandemic election. The Indivisible Yolo and Sister District Yolo Call Team has training and support to get you started with making calls. Sign up here!
The big picture
Research shows that calling voters is the most effective strategy for getting out the vote, aside from canvassing (which isn’t an option during a pandemic!). We know that calling voters can seem intimidating to some, but we assure you that even the introverts among us can do it! Just check out this video.
Once trained, you can join our regular phonebanks or can call from the comfort of your home when it is convenient. Join us and make calls to turnout the vote needed to win the White House, flip the Senate, and turn key state houses Blue!
The details
Calling voters is entirely virtual. All you need is a laptop or device to join the Zoom meeting, and a phone to call voters.
Call campaigns vary each week. Campaign details and training are provided on the Zoom call and updated weekly — find a phone bank that works with your schedule on our calendar, and click on the Zoom link in the event details to join.
Once you are trained, you can find everything you need to call with us or on your own on the Call Team LinkTree.

Show Up
From the Women’s March to the Climate Strike to No War protests to picket lines, taking the time to show up in person makes our movement visible and powerful.
Visit
When you contact your Members of Congress and other elected officials, an in-person office visit has the most impact.
Write
Postcards to voters increase turnout, get people registered, help them vote more regularly and remind people to vote for candidates that share their values. They also create communities of writers that #DoTheWork together. Indivisible Yolo’s postcarding program isn’t active right now, but you can write postcards with Activate America and Postcards to Voters.
Letters to the editor are a great way to get your elected officials’ attention. We are always looking for letter writers. If you’d like to help draft them, please contact us.
Text
Textbanking is a fast and easy way to reach hundreds of voters in minutes, and you can do it anywhere, anytime. Lear about our Text Team.
Call
Phonebanking creates personal connections that make a difference. The only thing more effective is in person contact. Speaking of which…
Knock
Canvassing is the best way to reach people and turn out their vote. Whether it’s local or out of state, canvassing is where it’s at. If you’ve never tried it, come with us – we’ll make it fun and you’ll get a walk in, too!
Vote
Voter registration is critical to increasing turnout. We create and join voter registration events regularly.
