Thanks to everyone who e-mailed in response to the diary we posted on Monday ("Voters petitioning superdelegates for Obama in 4 states").
Voters for Obama is a coalition of voters calling for Democratic elected officials and other superdelegates to support Barack Obama.
Our website, www.votersforobama.com, has sparked petition drives to superdelegates in four states including North Carolina, where we first organized. The site contains everything voters need to contact superdelegates in their states.
Take five minutes and use the tools on our site to call or e-mail an undecided superdelegate near you.
More info after the jump.
Here's what you can do:
• Call or e-mail your state's superdelegates
Take five minutes and call an undecided superdelegate in your area. We recommend contacting elected officials first - check our site’s list for your Congressperson, Senator or Governor.

About Voters for Obama
We are a diverse group of voters supporting Obama from several states including North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Oregon, and Rhode Island.
We first organized in North Carolina because all our congressional Democrats originally backed former Sen. John Edwards. When Edwards exited the presidential race, most had yet to endorse another candidate.
So far in N.C., over 1000 voters have signed petitions asking three superdelegates to back Obama - Democratic Reps. David Price and Brad Miller, and Gov. Mike Easley.
