Here are talking points for folks to use during their outreach:
• Twitter Vote Report is the brainchild of a network of volunteer activists, technologists and bloggers who have brought this exciting new project from a blog post to a nationwide citizen engagement effort in 3 weeks
• The effort is energized by an open source ethos that has attracted many participating organizations including the Election Protection Coalition, Rock the Vote, Credo Mobile, Common Cause and many others to work across institutional lines to augment their own Election Day reporting efforts.
• Cell phones users will help create an open conversation about Election Day issues that can be “seen” through maps, graphs and other creative visualization efforts
• Twitter Vote Report has been embraced by a number of media outlets including NPR social media desk, PBS/YouTube, Current TV and lots and lots of bloggers
• We’re looking forward to Election Day when citizens will report their experiences and also help one another to find out where, how and when to vote – and all sorts of other creative uses of text messaging that we haven’t even thought of yet!
