Using text, images, sound, video, and trackable website links, you can communicate directly with a large audience to:
- Introduce your candidate or issue to voters
- Reach out to members, supporters, or volunteers to engage them on legislation
- Maximize event turnout and attendance

It’s critical to constantly remind your voters how, when, and where to vote. This is especially true in down-ballot races and primary elections where turnout and name ID are lower. To launch your Get Out the Vote (GOTV) phone calls and texts, all we need are your list, message, and payment. But don’t worry … we can write your script, guide you on the data, and make pricing and payment simply. We are experts in planning and executing Get Out The Vote (GOTV) live phone calls and texts. To get started, you just need to reach out and one of our agents will do all the work for you.
When deployed smartly, to the right audience they’re extremely effective. By and large, senior citizen voters primarily use landline phones and they vote in larger proportion than any other voting bloc. When you target your robo calls to people who have a landline phone and are likely to answer or listen to the messages left on it, you can make a difference in your race.
If you’ve got an important issue that you’re trying to get passed at the federal or state level, there is no doubt that patch through calls can help you influence legislators. Social media, snail mail, in person visits, nothing has the same weight to a congressional office as a large volume of calls. We’ll call constituents in the specific districts that matter most, educate them about your issue, patch them through to their legislator, and let them inform the lawmaker how they’d like them to vote. If you need a bill to pass (or fail), then patch through calls and texts will make your voice heard where it counts.

They’re fast to launch, branded for your organization, and built to show results. Every action is tracked, giving you data you can use to prove engagement, grow your supporter list, and demonstrate grassroots strength to legislators, donors, and stakeholders.
A telephone townhall is a live, large-scale event that lets you connect with thousands of people at once—right on their phones. Think of it as a virtual town meeting that blends the reach of a broadcast with the interaction of a personal conversation.
Here’s how it works: we dial out to your audience, they receive a call and are brought directly into your live event. You can also invite participants to dial in. During the townhall, participants can ask questions, respond to polls, and hear directly from you or your guests in real time.
Telephone townhalls are powerful tools for campaigns, elected officials, and advocacy groups alike. Candidates use them to engage voters and share their message. Elected officials use them to update constituents and answer questions about their work. Advocacy organizations use them to educate supporters, grow membership, and mobilize action, all without the logistics or cost of an in-person event.
A telephone townhall is your chance to speak directly with an audience of thousands to share your message, answer audience questions, and collect valuable feedback through real-time audience polls. For most organizations, this is the largest audience to which you’ll ever speak, at a fraction of the cost of an in-person event. You’ll speak to your audience for pennies per minute of engagement, without the filter of media.
You can recruit volunteers, gauge voter or constituent support for your candidate or issue, and collect email addresses. We dial out to both mobile and landline phones to reach the right people, wherever they are. We’ll even help you stream the event online and share the best sound clips afterward. Many participants listen to the telephone townhall for 8-10 minutes on average, many times longer than a TV or digital ad.
With CampaignHQ, you won’t waste time worrying about the details. Your event will run smoothly from start to finish and give you the results you want.
Watch why Telephone Townhalls still work in modern political outreach
Live calls are the most flexible and effective voter contact tool in your campaign arsenal. They allow real conversations that identify supporters, persuade undecided, and move voters to action. You can reach voters that fall through the cracks of your door-knocking, digital, and text campaigns.
You can use live calls at every stage of your campaign:
- Persuasion: Have authentic, one-on-one conversations that win over swing voters and reinforce your message.
- ID Calls: Quickly identify supporters and build a reliable universe for future contact.
- GOTV: Make sure your voters have a plan to vote, know where to go, and actually turn out.
- Rapid Response: When news breaks or your opponent attacks, live calls let you get your side of the story out immediately.
At CampaignHQ, our callers are trained communicators who understand the issues and become fluent in your message before they pick up the phone. Whether you need to persuade, inform, or mobilize, live calls give you the speed, scale, and personal touch to make every conversation count.
