Contribute $6 to Daily Kos to recall Rick Snyder in Michigan.
* * * *
As we previously reported, an effort to recall Rick Snyder in underway in Michigan. The Committee to Recall Rick Snyder (FireRickSnyder.org) has had their recall petition approved, recruited organizing captains in every county in Michigan, signed up well over 1,000 volunteers, and began collecting actual recall petition signatures last weekend.
At Daily Kos, we are joining this recall effort. Our first step will be running Facebook and Google ads across the entire state of Michigan to quickly sign up 10,000 volunteers to gather recall petition signatures. Typically, using online ads costs about $2 per sign up, so we're going to need $20,000 to pull this off.
Can you contribute $6 to Daily Kos, to help us sign up three of the 10,000 volunteers needed to recall Rick Snyder?
The first versions of the ads we intend to run across the entire state of Michigan are on the right side of this article. Every day, we will test a new ad against the current one we are running, so that we make sure the campaign is optimized to sign up as many people as possible. Once people sign up, they will be quickly connected to the local petition gathering operation in their county, thereby immediately turning these online ads into boots on the ground.
Rick Snyder has an approval rating hovering around 30%, so he would be in a lot of trouble if he faces a recall election in November. All we need to do is keeping feeding as many people as possible into the existing operation to gather petition signatures. It's up to us to make this happen, too, since labor unions and the Michigan Democratic Party are not joining in the recall effort at this time.
We're going to have to provide the leadership on this one. Once we do, others will follow. Please, contribute $6 to recall Rick Snyder now.
