ELECTIONS
Streamline Election Communications
Free up your team to focus on engaging voters and supporting the community with automation, rather than getting bogged down in manual calls and emails.
Cutting Down Phone Calls
Our automated text message system will answer the most commonly asked elections questions and minimize the large influx of calls during election time. Your team can stay focused on critical tasks while citizens get quick and accurate information.
Simplified Poll Worker Sign Ups
TextMyGov allows poll workers to easily select training classes and preferred days/times through simple text flows (form submissions by text). This streamlined process eliminates the need for manual scheduling, reduces errors, and ensures poll workers get timely reminders and updates.
General Voter Notifications
Residents can opt in to receive election notifications by texting your keyword to a short code number. For example: Text COUNTYELECTIONS to 91896. Once subscribed, they’ll automatically receive important updates such as registration deadlines, polling locations, and election day reminders.
"Once we transitioned into texting, we found that even our oldest poll workers who we were most concerned with and who did not use emails, like a lot of us do. They had smartphones and they could easily read a text. Having the ability to send one text to a large group just simplified the process and made communication so much more efficient as everyone then was receiving the same message at the same time."
- Dana Southerland from Florida, Supervisor of Elections
