Does anyone have a script or talking points to use for calling Spanish Speakers?
My family in Florida wants simple phrases in Spanish to be able to communicate with Spanish speakers when phone banking for Obama.

I can't find this on his web site or anywhere else using Google.

3. This is a good flyer, but they need super basic sentences in Spanish like:
Hello I am calling from the Democratic Committee X.

Are you excited about the upcoming election?

Are you going to vote in November?

Who are you going to vote for?

Did you know that Obama has a new health plan?

Did you know that Obama wants to overhaul immigration laws?

Be sure to vote in November.

Thank you for voting.

7. I'm sure there is a script
However, I don't know where it is.

Couldn't you take the info you have and write one for your family members to read?

9. Thanks. Problem with these is that they are for Spanish Speakers. So they are too complex.
They can handle basic sentences only...

I posted because I could not find a script anywhere on the web in basic Spanish.
