I met an amazing woman at an Obama organization meeting. She is the county voter registration coordinator. She says carry your clip board everywhere (with an Obama bumper sticker on the back) and ask everyone if they are registered to vote at their current home address.
When you go to the grocery store ask the check out clerk, ask in the line at the post office. Ask everyone when you get on the bus in the morning and evening.
Why?
The Washington Post/ABC poll shows that a bigger turnout benefits Obama.
Obama has an three-point lead among likely voters (49%-46%) (Older voters make up a lot of this group).
Obama has an eight-point lead among registered voters (50%-42%).
And Obama has a twelve-point lead when you expand it to include all adults (51%-39%).
So get out your clipboards everyone. People have been willing to risk their lives and their fortunes for change less important than this.
Risking asking your neighbors if they have registered to vote at their current address is nothing!
(Beside most of your neighbors will appreciate your efforts and think you are a hero.)
