SUMMARY:Ground Truth Phone Bank (CA-48) (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a Ground Truth phone bank targeting CA-48\, a nearby district made newly competitive for Democrats as a result of Prop. 50! \nGround Truth is an innovative new program developed by Swing Left that will revolutionize how we connect with voters over the phone. \nOur goal: to help Democrats rebuild trust\, win tough races\, and flip the House. We’re bringing people together to build the community of real people\, having real conversations with real people. During Ground Truth phone banks\, we will talk to as many people as possible and focus on listening. \nAt this phone bank\, we’ll: \nCall ALL types of voters — not just those who vote like us. Have real conversations that LISTEN deeply to voters’ concerns. Gather insights to share with campaigns\, so they can be responsive to voters’ needs and smarter with their messaging\, targeting\, and outreach. Don’t worry if it’s your first time—training\, materials\, and support are all provided. Just come prepared with your phone and a laptop! \nWe recommend using earbuds or using headphones to free up your hands as well! \n–– \nAbout the program: \nThis isn’t traditional phone banking—it’s a whole new way of talking to voters. Together\, we’ll gather authentic insights from communities\, use cutting-edge tools to capture what we hear\, and share it back with campaigns to strengthen their efforts. \nWhy we’re starting early: Ground Truth launched a year ahead of the midterms to build power before campaigns get off the ground. \nHow we’ll go big: Calling every voter\, not just the ones we normally rely on\, so every conversation builds a more complete picture of the electorate. \nHow we’ll go deep: Practicing empathetic listening and real conversations that uncover voters’ “Ground Truth\,” not just checking boxes on a script. \nPaid for by Swing Left\, Swingleft.org\, not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee.
