Women for Obama Rally

CO-Wap member, Danielle, and her lovely, bundled munchkin weathered the inclement temps yesterday to show her support for Obama.

With the general election so close, I think many of us are feeling a strong desire to do our part to ensure Obama wins.

Here are some ideas (most of this applies to Boulder County but I'm sure your county can use your help, too):

"Get Out the Vote (GOTV), we hope you can volunteer to help in precincts where we need additional volunteers. We have three different volunteer needs described below. Please sign-up for one or more if you can!

(1) Volunteers to call a list Democrats who attended the caucus this spring in precincts where we need additional help, and ask these Democrats if they can work on election day. (You will get a list of between 50 and 100 to call and will have a week to make the calls.)

(2) Volunteers who will do phoning on Election Day from a list checked-off at the polls to remind those who have not voted to vote, to see if they need assistance getting to the polls and to inform them of their voting location.

(3) Volunteers who will do poll watching on election day. (This is such an important election, we will need trained poll watchers at each targeted polling place all day.

Poll watchers must be certified by the County Clerk by October 29 and trained by the Democratic Party. Poll watchers will be asked to take a shift for two hours or more between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm, when the polls are open, 1) to make sure that every eligible voter who enters the polling place has the right to do so and is not impeded for any reason and 2) to check-off the names of those who have voted from a list they will be provided by the precinct coordinator. (NOTE: You must be a registered Democrat to be a Democratic Poll Watcher.)"

AM from _________ to _________ or PM from __________ to __________


IMPORTANT, PLEASE COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING:

__________________________ Name

Also, don't forget that Colorado has a long list of very confusing items to vote on. Check out Kir's ballot recommendation post.

PLEASE please please volunteer in your county to help get out the vote, poll-watch, or whatever else you can do. Colorado is dead even and could have the decisive 9 electoral votes that secure the presidency for Obama. Let's make it happen!
