Anyone here volunteering to get out the vote? [View all]

Hi, I’ve been looking at the polls and other data on the Senate races and thinking about making calls to persuade dems to come out to vote...

Looks like compared to the other tossup Senate races, each voter in ND carries much more weight, so calls can make more of a difference here.
This is from https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2018-midterm-election-forecast/senate/?ex_cid=midterms-header

Voter power index
North Dakota 29.0
Nevada 9.2
Montana 8.0
Tennessee 4.2
West Virginia 3.6

Wondering what your on the ground experience has been, for anyone who’s been making calls or canvassing...?
