*Official Clark EBlock Calling thread!*

[Mobius]

Im up to 20 calls to Virgingia, and needed a break, how about you? If you have more than me, I will try to beat you. After you complete a set of calls, come back this thread ans post how many calls youve made. I will tell you in the main window (not the one you get for call info) in the upper right hand corner)
I got 3 will vote for Clark and a sorry I already voted for Kerry but after talking to you, am calling my friends to tell them to vote for Clark. GO MEEEE!!!Clark Eblock Callers? :yourock:

1. Congrats!

We needed this badly here in Virginia if Clark is to stand a chance in hell. I was so moved by him at the rally on Saturday and I wish him all the very best. He's truly a man of his word and cares deeply about this country - of that there is no doubt in my mind.

Good luck!

2. Did you call anybody???

You still can! Now is more important than ever. Calling people right before they go, is when they are most desperate to decide. People go with what was the last good impression in their mind! Gonna go back for 20 more! I better see some good amount of call made by you guys in what state, when I get back! :P
Off ti Virginia for 20 more! :kick:

3. Well, I've been making calls

The people I am speaking to in TN are generally nice. Often I get machines. I think I have solidified some Clark supporters today, and helped push them to the polls. Other days I have won some folks over. I am being very gently with my TN calls today, lots of people have already gotten lots of phone calls. I acknowledge that they probably are getting swamped by people wanting them to talk about candidates, there is probably no way on Earth that they could forget today is election day, and I thank them for their patience with us, but that I am only taking a day off to call strangers because it is so important and I really believe Wesley Clark will make a great President.

It think the soft peddle is a good strategy in TN, where so many calls have already been done. I don't seem to be annoying people as long as I am respectful if they tell me they don't have time to talk about it again. Maybe it is different in Virginia.

4. Im talking numbers! I called 40 how many did you call?

lets see who can get the most! It will be fun. Even the ones that voted already have friends they call call. GO GO GO !

7. What time do the polls close in TN?

If someone asks, I want to be able to tell them.

Thanks,

8. Tried to find out via Google, here's what I could find

In 2002 the TN primary closed at 7:00 Central Time Zone. I bet it is the same this year but don't know for sure. Virginia in 2002 closed at 6:00 pm EST. I wonder if that is the same this year with a contested Primary. If so, better make our Clark calls to TN quickly in case Kerry does well in Virginia (which I hope he doesn't of course) so people won't be influenced by those returns.

10. Best call yet!

**************Voter didn't realize this was election day.*******************

You can still make a difference.

Whole family is Veterans, and they're sick of the crappy benefits and treatment they get. We talked for 20 minutes. I read her Wes's statement on Veterans. She wants CHANGE in Washington.

She's going to round up friends and neighbors and go the the firehouse to vote when she picks her kids up from school. They'll be voting Clark!

13. I just got off the phone with a woman who didn't know it was Election Day

We had a nice talk. She seemed impressed with the General but didn't know if she could get to the polls (she needed a ride). She lives in Nashville so I called our office there and they will call her and try to arrange it for her. It's not over yet!

[Toucano]

14. Excellent!

Good job! Finding those voters is like finding a diamond in the dirt.

[Mobius]

18. GREAT JOB!
