Counting Down. Counting on You.
Monday is the last full day of campaigning before Tuesday’s election. We need you now more than ever if we’re going to overcome all the big-name firepower and big-money blasts that have been aimed at us. Here’s how you can help:
We need volunteers from 6:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. on Monday morning to pass out flyers at the Metra stations. If you can help, please email Sandra at sjv60640@gmail.com
with the following information: Your phone number(s) and the location of the train station nearest you. Also, let her know whether you can come to the campaign headquarters (1920 S. Highland, Third Floor, Lombard) this evening to pick up hand-outs or you’d prefer someone meet you at the train station in the morning with campaign literature.
Monday night. We need people to deliver GOTV (Get Out The Vote) flyers to voters in the district anytime between the hours of 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. You will be given flyers and a list of addresses. All you have to do is drive around and leave one flyer at each home on your list. Email Sandra at sjv60640@gmail.com. Let us know whether you can come to the campaign office to pick them up or you’d prefer that we drop the flyers off at your home or workplace.
Tuesday. First of all, VOTE! And make sure everyone you know votes – for Christine! If you have time to spare, we will have hundreds of volunteers in the streets on election day, please drop by the headquarters at 1920 S. Highland Avenue, Stuite 300 to join the teams. After the polls close at 7:30 p.m., you’re all invited to our Election Night Party at the Holiday Inn, 1250 Roosevelt Rd., Glen Ellyn (east of I-355 and west of S. Finley Rd.).
Music, food, beverages, TV’s to watch for Election Night coverage, old friends, new friends, and, of course, the candidate herself.
Also, you’ll have a chance to meet one of the most prolific Progressive voices in America, William Rivers Pitt, who has flown in from Boston for the celebration Tuesday night. Will is the lead writer for truthout.org and is a New York Times and internationally best-selling author of two books: War in Iraq – What Team Bush Doesn’t Want You to Know, and The Greatest Sedition is Silence. Will is currently working on his third book, Four More Years – Truth, Justice, and the Ethic of Total Opposition. Also joining us will be Tim Carpenter, executive director of Progressive Democrats of America.
