FAQ:
Will it use my own phone number? No, texting uses a web browser application called Spoke and uses the campaign's numbers
Can anyone anywhere text for Bernie? Yes no age requirement, non-us citizens can volunteer. And since it uses Spoke/campaigns numbers, people abroad can help out as well!
I don't know what to say to people. Texting is mostly prefilled messages and responses. You just select the appropriate response and select edit gramatically.
Bernie is taking the debate stage tonight at 9 PM EST/6 PM PST!

Hello Bernie supporters!
This email is to remind you to send your “Postcards for Bernie” back to us by January 8, 2020.
We need you to drop your finished postcards off at your local UPS store or drop-off location by January 8 to ensure that they reach our mailhouse in time to be reviewed and sent off to voters in Iowa.
Important note: It has to UPS. If you drop your postcards off at USPS or Fedex or any other company, they won’t reach us. Find your nearest UPS location here.
Thanks for writing these postcards, sharing your stories, and encouraging voters in Iowa to caucus for Bernie. We had supporters from coast-to-coast participate in this effort, and have been blown away by the response.
Together we can win this thing,
The Bernie 2020 Team
P.S. - If you are missing your UPS return label, there are two options: 1) You can mail the postcards back yourself to this address:
Bernie Postcard Project
c/o Morel Inc.
5250 High Banks Road, Suite 750
Springfield, OR 97478
Or 2) You can email info@berniesanders.com and we’ll email you a return label. Note, because of high volume, this option may be slower.
Text banking is all done on web browser through the campaign's system. Anyone in the world can volunteer for Bernie! There are also training webinars if you would like to attend instead of self training.
