"Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I'm a volunteer with the Hidalgo County Democratic Party in this neighborhood."

"I'm stopping by today because the 2026 elections are coming up, and we're checking in with voters about the issues that matter most to them. For many folks here, it's about fully funding our public schools, protecting access to healthcare, and making sure our economy works for working families, not just those at the top."

"Can I ask, what is the most important issue to you and your family right now?"

(Listen actively. Validate their concerns.)

"Thank you for sharing that. That's exactly why we're supporting local candidates like [Candidate Name, if applicable] who are fighting for those exact issues."

"Can we count on your support for Democrats up and down the ballot this November?"

(If Yes/Leaning Yes):

"That's great! Are you registered to vote at this address? Do you know where your polling location is?"

(Leave literature/push card and thank them for their time.)

"Hi, is [Voter Name] available?"

"Hi [Voter Name], my name is [Your Name], calling with the Hidalgo County Democratic Party. How are you today?"

"I'm calling because we have crucial elections coming up this November, and we want to ensure every voice is heard. The Texas Democratic platform is focused on protecting reproductive freedoms, strengthening public education, and ensuring fair elections."

"If the election were held today, would you be supporting Democratic candidates?"

(If Strong Democrat):

"Fantastic. We are always looking for people to help us get out the vote. Would you be interested in volunteering for a block walk or phone bank?"

(If Undecided/Needs More Info):

"I completely understand. If I could point you to one resource, it would be our website at hidalgocountydems.org where you can see where we stand on the issues. Thank you for your time!"
