Calculate Volunteer Shifts
      Smith Township Needs
      Vote goal = 11,496

We can make:
•    25 GOTV phone contacts contacts/hr
•    8 GOTV door contacts/hr
•    3 hours to a volunteer shift
So we will need…
•    345 volunteer phone hours (115 vol. shifts), OR
•    1078 volunteer door hours (360 vol. shifts), OR
•    90 Phone shifts (6750 voters) + 78 Canvass shifts (1872 voters)
