5 days

Dear MoveOn member,

There are only five days left until one of the most important congressional primaries of the year.

It's progressive champion Ilya Sheyman vs. conservative Brad Schneider in this suburban Chicago district, and it's coming down to the wire. To send a true progressive to Congress, we've got to mobilize MoveOn members to get out the vote.

Our programmers have just finished a new version of our calling tool that allows you to call MoveOn members in Ilya's district and sign them up to volunteer for the campaign. We're hoping you can help us launch this new program and put Ilya over the top.

This is one of the most important pieces of our election plan for this year and we need Ilya supporters to test it out. Calling is easy, and you'll be making a real difference putting Ilya on the path to victory.


If you've ever called MoveOn members during one of our previous campaigns, you know how much fun it can be. Your fellow MoveOn members are good folks, and many will appreciate your call. You can practice reading through the calling script, and then start calling MoveOn members.

Here's what other MoveOn members who've made similar calls in the past have said about it:

"A great experience all around—I have worked on MANY campaigns, and done a LOT of phone banking, but your scripts and materials were really excellent."—Theresa L.

"Had a great time and really feel we made a difference."—Cecily K. 

You don't need to know anything special—our phone tool will walk you through the process and give you all the info you need. However, you will need to be able to be on the phone (land line or cell phone) and the Internet at the same time.

If you have any questions, the link below includes answers to frequently asked questions and a way to email other MoveOn members for help. Go ahead, click the link now to join us and get started calling for Ilya. 


Thanks for all you do.
