Test the new Ground Truth phone bank program!

Join Swing Left for a Ground Truth phone bank—designed to fix what’s broken in Democratic organizing. We’re testing an innovative new program that will revolutionize how we connect with voters over the phone. Our goal: to help Democrats rebuild trust, win tough races, and flip the House. This is our first-ever Ground Truth phone bank pilot, open to groups in the Swing Left community.

At this phone bank, we’ll:

• Call 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.

You can join and call from just your phone, but we recommend being prepared with a tablet/laptop and earbuds as well!

About the program:

This 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.

Why we’re starting early: launching a year ahead of the midterms to build power before campaigns are even off the ground.

How 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.

How we’ll go deep: practicing empathetic listening and real conversations that uncover voters’ “ground truth,” not just checking boxes on a script.
