Maryland 3rd district Congressman John Sarbanes is working hard to build the party and put a democrat in the white house!
Since Sarbanes is in a safe district, he has decided to build the democratic party and help ensure our success in November. The congressman is putting together a volunteer coalition to help the democratic party not just at the presidential level, but at the senate and house level as well.
Sarbanes' operation involves calls to Virginia for Obama and Warner, and canvasing and calls to the eastern shore for Kratovil in this red to blue house race. Sarbanes helps win these races for us with events every week, and an office full of activity, with the goal of building a democratic wave in November.
Sarbanes is doing things right and his tactics are what we need to achieve victory in November. He is using the web to make connections and find volunteers in a way which represents what the democrats need to do to build a winning coalition. He is getting thousands of people connected through facebook and youtube.

These up and coming democratic activists will be loyal foot soldiers for the grassroots movement which will being us strong progressive democratic majorities.
Coming into the summer, I was looking to get involved in the presidential race and the Eastern Shore house race, and the first place I found that gave me the opportunity to help win these races was the Sarbanes campaign. In just a few days I was phone banking for Obama and Warner, and canvassing for Kratovil. I was also working in the office, using Sarbanes' online network to find more volunteers to join the effort.
From my few weeks so far volunteering with the Sarbanes campaign, I know that the Sarbanes campaign is committed to helping democrats win. He could have easily sat out the election, since his district is so safe, but instead he has joined the fray and could be the deciding factor in key races such as the Virginia Presidential race and the Maryland 1st district house race.
If you are looking to volunteer in Maryland, than the Sarbanes campaign is a great way to get involved.
