I'm a Precinct Captain for Barack Obama in East Dallas (yes, that is part of Dallas, Texas, despite what some may tell you). Since the Texas campaign began, I have made more than 700 820 calls to registered voters in my precinct to find Obama supporters and ensure that they get out to both vote and caucus. You may think Senator Obama has it in the bag, but we cannot take anything for granted, especially in Texas!
Below the fold, you will find the top 5 reasons you should be making calls RIGHT NOW:
Start making calls to voters on behalf of Senator Obama right now because:
- Lots of people are at home on this dreary/rainy Sunday afternoon--your time will be used efficiently!
- The lady I just talked to who forgot Tuesday was election day cannot be alone--make sure people know Tuesday is D-Day!
- The lady I just talked to who really wants Obama to win but thought she might vote for Clinton because she would hate for her to lose too badly--people need to know we Obama supporters are not taking anything for granted and that every last vote counts!
- Clinton's campaign intends to suppress the Obama vote and manipulate the caucus process--do you really want to let them get away with that Rovian move?
- You can help Obama shatter his goal of 1,000,000 calls to voters by March 4th--as of right now, he just hit 1,000,723!
Go to this site and start calling voters right now!
I just thought of a 6th (bonus!) reason to call Texas voters for Obama right now: by helping strengthen the Texas Democratic Party by getting the vote out, you decrease the chance of Texans empowering someone like George W. Bush to win the White House ever again!!!
Make calls now, please!
