Here's a notice from the Obama Senate campaign. I know there's a lot of Illinois KOS readers out there. If you can please come down to the city tonight at 6pm at the WLS Studio at 190 N State St.
See you there!

DON'T MISS THE DEBATE!
Tonight's debate is the FIRST to be televised live across the state, and we need your help!
If you are in the Chicago area, we need supporters to help us cheer Barack on before the debate. Please join us in your brightest Obama Blue apparel outside the WLS Studio on 190 North State Street in Chicago by 6:00 PM.
After we greet Barack, we'll head to the campaign office at 310 South Michigan Avenue to eat pizza and watch the debate together.
If you live outside the Chicago area, go to http://www.lwvil.org/ to find a radio or TV station near you that is broadcasting the debate.
HELP ELECT MELISSA BEAN TO CONGRESS!
On Saturday, October 23, Obama volunteers will spend the day canvassing in the 8th Congressional District to ensure a Melissa Bean victory! Melissa and Barack will be at Paulus Park, 400 Whitney Road, in Lake Zurich for a pre-canvass rally at 10 AM. The canvass will begin at 10:30 AM. There are two ways to attend: If you live closer to Lake Zurich than to the city, head up to Paulus Park at 400 Whitney Road. If you need a ride or can help transport other volunteers, call Adam at (773)465-9252 or email aleddy@obamaforillinois.com.
Carpools will leave at 9:00 AM from the Schakowsky Campaign office (5539 North Broadway Avenue); we'll meet there at 8:45 AM. Obama volunteers will join with Bean volunteers at Paulus Park.
GET ON THE BUS FOR JOHN KERRY!
Al Gore won Wisconsin by less than 6,000 votes in 2000. Voter turnout on Election Day will determine America's next president and Obama volunteers are doing their part to get out the vote.
On Saturday, October 23, a bus of Obama volunteers will leave Chicago to canvass and ensure a Democratic victory in Wisconsin this November. You must RSVP to get on the bus! The bus will leave from 8729 South State Street at 8:15 AM on October 23rd. To RSVP for this bus, contact Ian Priest at (312)427-6300 or ipriest@obamforillinois.com.
