Road to Somewhere How You Can Help No Matter Where You Live
Sample Phone Script
 Here’s
an example of a phone script used by phone-bank volunteers in Ohio
for voter education:
INTRO: Hi could I speak to _________?
Hi (repeat name), my name is __________ and I am a volunteer with
the local Sierra Club. We’re not asking for money. We are
calling folks in your neighborhood to discuss the presidential election
and some environmental issues facing us right here in the Columbus
area.
The Sierra Club is working to educate voters in Ohio about environmental
issues. In Ohio there are dozens of toxic waste sites. Senator Kerry
co-sponsored legislation that would require the companies who abandoned
these toxic waste sites to pay to clean them up. President Bush
has refused to support the polluter-pays principle and has instead
required taxpayers to pay to clean up the mess.
It is important that we get this story out to Ohio voters, and
we need your help in our grassroots campaign. Would you be interested
in volunteering to help the Sierra Club educate voters on local
environmental issues and to encourage people to vote on Election
Day?
If yes, take down information.
If no, thank them for their time.
