Call to Win in Wisconsin
Republicans are going all-in for right-wing Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. Walker's campaign has already spent $21 million trying to whitewash his record of attacking middle class families. The RNC says they'll spend whatever it takes to win. And Super PACs are spending millions trying to tear Democrats down.
They're drowning us in attack ads, but the polls haven't moved an inch. We were neck and neck six months ago, and we're neck and neck today.
There are virtually no undecided voters left, so it all comes down to Getting Out The Vote. Whoever best turns out their base will in.
Can you make calls to Democratic voters and help Get Out The Vote?

Here's how it works:
1. Sign up for to make calls by checking the box for whichever shift or shifts work for you.
