The Progressive Change Campaign Committee on Tuesday launched a voter outreach program Call Out The Vote which the group is calling the “crown jewel” of its 2012 campaign effort, reports the Huffington Post. Through paid employees at a Virginia call center and supplemented by thousands of volunteers around the country, PCCC aims to place one million phone calls on behalf of progressive Senate and House candidates across the country.
PCCC plans to make hundreds of thousands of calls for Elizabeth Warren’s Massachusetts Senate race. Another top priority is Alan Grayson’s House race in Florida. Call Out The Vote will also help Sen. Sherrod Brown’s re-election effort in Ohio and Tammy Baldwin’s Senate campaign in Wisconsin. On the House side, calls will go out for Rob Zerban, who is trying unseat Paul Ryan, Annie Kuster’s campaign in New Hampshire, and several other progressive candidates.
