Prop 8 Phone Calls

Sunday the Young Single Adults of California were asked to focus their Proposition 8 efforts in a new direction. We, as a group, have been commissioned to make over 1 million phone calls in the next 14 days to registered voters throughout the state. The idea is to encourage the YES absentee ballot voters to send in their ballots and to encourage the undecided voters how important it is to vote YES. I had such a great time making my phone calls Monday. I spent almost 4 hours on the phone, contacted over 200 voters, and found out that more than 80% are voting YES. I loved it! I felt like I was back in the RC at the Missionary Training Center. I just couldn't get enough. I'm already looking forward to making more phone calls tomorrow, and the next day, and the next, and the next . . .

I have been very passionate about this Prop. Many Stakes in our state were also asked to make phone calls, but my stake canceled the plans. I was so eagar to do something to help. I am glad that you are getting good response. I have been worried b/c a lot of stars have been giving there own NO plugs on TV
