Either way, here are the details:

Hey all - Chuck Westover here - as early voting is underway all over the country and we get closer to Election Day, I am already helping a wide variety of progressive organizations use the tools listed below to get-out-the-vote:

- Peer-to-Peer MMS Texts: Once we get you 10 DLC approved, these texts with an accompanying image can legally be launched to any cell phone you want to target.

- Ringless voicemails: This tool pushes a voicemail onto a mobile phone without the phone even ringing (great for events, tours, early vote, absentee chasing and GOTV.)

- Live Voice Broadcasts: A live operator delivers a repeated message and the ask is (often) to push the recipient to take a one question ID survey (great for building an ID list for GOTV or building RSVPs for events.)

- Gabby Graphic Texts: It's like a regular P2P text message, but comes through as an image of your speaker (i.e. your president or whoever) with a big play button on it where the recipient can click and hear a GOTV message in addition to whatever accompanying text you want to send in the text (you can include links, too.)

- Full Service Teletownhalls: We supply a moderator, screeners, and collectors. Prices vary based on dials and whether you need Spanish translation or Zoom connection, or other add-on features.

- Traditional Robo Calls: Prices vary depending on the length of the recording.

Get in touch if you need anything!

Hey DC and Michigan friends - Charles Brooks Westover here!

I wanted to give you a heads up on event we are holding for Democrat Curtis Hertel, who is running for Michigan's 7th Congressional District.

I've known Curtis for 20+ years, as we used to work together in Lansing for the state legislature. Curtis is as sharp as they come and I know he will make one heck of a congressman for mid-Michigan and the Metro Detroit area.

This district is one of the most competitive in the country and in what will be a close election in the 7th CD and nationally, this race could decide control of the House in November.

And we need all the progressives like Curtis we can get to help us govern in Congress in 2025.

Please attend and / or give what you can here:

I'd love to see you there!

Chuck Westover here. Did you know: Hundreds of thousands of Texans are getting unfairly kicked off Medicaid - so we did something about it 👇

We dialed 200,000 Texans using TTHM (Telephone Town Hall Meeting)'s technology and data from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities that targeted those in Texas with children who make family incomes under $46,740 per year. These are the families most at risk for losing their Medicaid know that the Covid emergency has been declared over.

The teletownhall was translated live in Spanish for those who elected that option and we spent the better part of an hour answering questions, running poll questions for follow up later, and providing crucial information so people in serious need could get the help they required.

Prior to the event, the participating organizations blasted out an RSVP page and ran social media ads (as seen below) to promote the event and educate Texans on this issue of Medicaid Unwinding.

Ever since the Covid emergency ended, millions across the country have lost their Medicaid - and it's often been due to paperwork errors. Some states have done a better job than others to correct these mistakes and help their citizens regain their health insurance.

[And I will let you take a wild guess on how well Texas and Governor Abbott have done 😡🤬🥲]

If your state's poorest residents are experiencing the awful misery and fear of losing their health insurance and you want to do something about it like Texas did, then please get in touch with me!

Chuck Westover here - the page for my client the Democratic Coalition Against Trump enters the final month of the election season with more total interactions and a higher interaction rate in 2018 than all but four progressive pages - and more than such established groups like MoveOn, Shareblue, DailyKos and the ACLU.

The page has also been the main driver of more than 400,000 letters to Congress by 97K unique individuals, including 81,000 letters supporting Trump's impeachment.

Take action on any of the pages here [http://bit.ly/2rRly7I] and then find out where and how to vote at www.Vote.org.

Onward to victory on November 6th!

Election day is just 30 short days away, so let’s take a quick moment to reflect back on 2018 and then focus like a laser on the midterms.

Chuck Westover here - Yesterday afternoon, my client Telephone Town Hall Meeting launched a teletownhall to 131K+ union retirees affiliated with the AFSCME Retirees and the Alliance for Retired Americans in 5 key states.

More than 17k seniors joined a Q&A discussion with U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown where he explained why Brett Kavanaugh will be an awful choice for anyone in this country who cares about issues related to working families or seniors:

"Special interests already have armies of lobbyists and lawyers on their side. Working people need justices who will put their rights first, not justices who will side with insurance companies over cancer survivors, financial scammers over customers, or massive corporations over American workers," Brown said.

More than 700 pressed 8 during the call and were patched through to their U.S. senators to deliver a message against Trump's anti-worker Supreme Court nominee. Hundreds more have since used the 800 number we gave out on the call to contact their senators as well.

Contact me at [email protected] if you are interested in holding an event like this, or if you'd like more info on our other communications tools, including robo calls, mobile alerts and peer-to-peer texting.

Democratic Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown announced Friday he will vote against confirming Brett Kavanaugh, President Donald Trump's pick for the U.S. Supreme Court.
