About Phonebanking with Democrats Abroad

Democrats Abroad uses a free-for-you online system called CallHub that lets you call from a computer—all you need is internet access, a Chrome browser* and a speaker with a microphone. Log in and you will see a script and the voter information so you know who you're talking to. Simply follow the script and then fill in the survey answers: no other record-keeping needed.

*Follow this link to Download & install Google Chrome (on Windows, Mac or Linux).
