In 7 days time we will know if all our efforts over the past 12 months have been worth it. We will know if we have reformed Ohio and taken back our government from corrupt pay for play cronyism. But before we pop the champagne corks we got a lot more work ahead of us.
2005 is an off election year, turnout will be low, and the polls are close on Issues 4 (redistricting) and issue 5 (replacing Ken Blackwell) so to maximize our chances against the enemies of reform and good government we have 7 days to work...the tasks if you wish to accept them are in the extended.
First and perhaps most importantly - Voter outreach in the form of Phone banking. If you live in Ohio here is the
link you need to get hooked up.
If you live out of state there is also a way you can help phone bank - and the link to do this can be found here. When i suggested this to Ron a few weeks ago I was hoping they cold have had it set up by now - but later is better than never - and kudos to them for listening.
Contribute $$'s - right now and for Today only your dollars get matched 1 for 1. It doesn't get any better than that !
Ron is now also using their money to run radio ads, there are a couple of shows you can call into
10:00 am--WOSU 820 AM. Open Line with Fred Andrle.
Discussion: Issues 2-5. The righties often call in to confuse things. Call to help keep things on track. This program gets a second audience when it is rebroadcast in the evening. Help Out!!
2:00 pm--WOSU 820 AM. NPR's Talk of the Nation, with Neal Conan
Discussion: Redistricting across the nation. Try to call in here too. This has a huge nationwide audience!
To wrap things up, Ohio Firsts list of anti reformer donors is out - Why so many fucking Dentists ? LOL
here is the list - If anyone has anything on anyone in this list, drop it in the comments. Cheers !
