We are registering like mad here in NC (2,848 new Democrats from Sept 10-12, for example). The way our system works we register through October tenth. Early voting starts October 16 and runs through November 1st. Every night once early voting starts we will get a list of Dems that have voted so that we can concentrate on the Dems that have not. That time will be critical, as is all time. I know that volunteering is not exactly what you would choose to do for vacation, but OWN THIS WIN! Volunteering makes Obama's victory your victory in a way that you won't feel if you don't get involved.
ANY time you can contribute will be MOST helpful. If you can come during the week, GREAT, if only on the weekends, GREAT! We will put you up, nothing LESS THAN and air mattress, but hopefully beds, and provide good meals for you in exchange for your hard work. If your state is ahead, COME HELP! If your state is going red for sure, COME HELP! I went to downtown Asheville yesterday, because the 2 o'clock canvassing was cancelled becasue I was the only one to show (10 o'clock had some groups). Alone I registered 10 new Dems. There is work to do, and we need your help. The polls are looking dismal, but they haven't polled me, so I am doing my best to think that the polls don't know jack, or bridget (me). Next weekend we are focussing on Hendersonville. A big canvassing. I went to Louisville, KY during the primaries, as did a big bunch from all over and though we didn't take KY we did win in Louisville. I am a firm believer in that if you want something badly you must work for it with all you have. If everyone believed that I wouldn't be posting, because we would be covered up with our own people. PLEASE COME HELP! We will show you the best of Southern Hospitality! The office number in Asheville is : 1-(828)-254-2379. Free foot bath and foot rub for canvassers (Am going to try and get liscenced masseuses, so that I can offer even better foot rubs, but at this moment, a foot rub is all I can personally gaurantee! 'Can't fault me for trying!) CALL! COME! WORK! for OBAMA 08!
P.S. If you don't like any of the choices in the poll below, I expect you here next weekend!
