"Our Maryland league changed their communications strategy for theBaltimore city elections just before the primary. When they called me to get precincts and city council districts appended to their databaseand ID files, I knew that they needed them quickly. But when they told me that they needed a mail file in two days, I told them that they werejust going to have to push back their mail date. Still, I called our account executive at Catalist at 5:30 in the evening, hoping he couldhelp me out. He was eager to, in fact, so I sent over the file with meager instructions - he called me before noon the next day to say thatthe file was already available, and our colleagues in Maryland were able to get their mailing out to the targeted precincts in plenty oftime."--Amy Drummond, Voter File and Data Manager, League of Conservation Voters
"With just two weeks before Election Day, MoveOn realized that Iowa's 2nd district had become competitive and decided to add it to our target list. Within hours, Catalist was able to provide us with a voter file appended with enhanced phone numbers, allowing us to direct volunteer calls into the district immediately. Using Catalist data, MoveOn made 32,000 calls in the final week of the election helping the progressive candidate, Democrat Dave Loebsack, win by less than 6,000 votes. MoveOn had never been able to move so quickly in the past using other file vendors." --Adam Ruben, Political Director, MoveOn.org Political Action
