Thanks for checking out the JohnKerry.com call center. Unfortunately, there are no phone numbers available for checkout at this time.

Kerry PhoneCorps hours are generally from 9:00AM EST to 1:00AM EST. Please check back at another time.

Making these phone calls is very important because the people that you are reaching will reach voters in the battleground states who will decide the outcome of the election.

We encourage you to login nightly and make as many calls as you can. Just click on the link in the email that you received during call center hours.

Hi, is ______________ available?

My name is __________ and I'm a volunteer with the Kerry-Edwards campaign. I'm calling because we are walking door-to-door this weekend in your area. I am signing up volunteers to help.

Door-to-door canvasses are a critical to win this November and I'm wondering if you might be available. If you are interested in participating I can sign you up and tell you where and when we are meeting.
If they say Yes...

Great! Grab a pen and I'll give you the details....

You should feel free to bring a friend to walk with you. Thanks again and we'll see you there.

Sorry to hear that. Are you interested in volunteering for other types of activities or for future events?

IF STILL NO...

OK, well thanks for your time! I'm going to move on to my next call.
