Hi, my name is____________________ and I'm a volunteer for Martha Coakley's campaign for Senate. I'm calling to make sure you're planning to vote this Tuesday, January 19th -- the day after Martin Luther King Day. Are you planning to vote this Tuesday the 19th?

[IF YES WILL VOTE] Great, the polls are open from 7AM to 8PM. It is important that everyone in your household votes for Martha. Will you be voting with anyone else from your household?

* Do you know where your polling location is?
o If they do not know, direct them to polling location lookup tool: pollingplaces.democrats.org OR transfer to Help Desk
o If they need a ride to the poll, transfer to Help Desk

* Do you know how you will get to your polling location and when you'll be going on Tuesday?

This race will decide who fills the seat of Senator Kennedy. Interest in this race is at an all time high and you don't want to be left out of this important election. We'll see you Tuesday at the polls.

[IF MAY NOT VOTE] The national Republican Party, extreme right wing groups and corporate special interests are pouring money into Massachusetts hoping to derail critical programs that protect seniors, children and working families. Martha Coakley will be the 60th vote to ensure we fulfill Ted Kennedy’s dream of healthcare reform, Scott Brown will stand in the way of that dream. Your vote matters and you don't want to be left out of this election. Martha needs your vote on Tuesday, January 19th.
