It's called a phone bank. And it's more powerful than cable TV.

CNN and Fox are uni-directional broadcasters reaching something like 10 million people a day.

You can go down to your local Democratic HQ and use the phones to get a two-way exchange of information into 150 houses in three hours. A conversation, even if it's only 30 seconds, is more powerful than 2 hours watching CNN.

You can precinct walk. A face-to-face conversation, even if it's 1 minute long, is is more powerful than an entire week of CNN propaganda.

So, if you're watching CNN, don't. Get off your ass and sign up for phone banking and precinct walking.

If you're in CA, here's a list of HQ's: http://www.cadem.org/site/pp.asp?c=fvLRK7O3E&b=140714

1. Kicking this
I did phone banking tonight. It's VERY easy to do, and it only takes 2-3 hours of your time. I'm sure everyone can find 3 free hours sometime between now and the election.

2. In California, 90% of the population is probably within 15 minutes
of an Every Vote Counts office.

There's not excuse not to do this.
