My neighbor is running for State Rep and could use some help. www.gregmarchant.com
Any help from any DUers would be greatly appreciated.
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Some people have been asking what they can do to help, and with less than a month and a half until the election there is a lot to do. I'll list the activities and you can get back to me about what you are interested in (or I can start pestering you until you finally give in).
SIGN CONSTRUCTION - DEADLINE Sept. 30 - I have 50 yard signs that need to be folded and stapled. I also have about 75 long signs that need to be cut into thirds and stapled. I have about 100 wooden stakes that need to have a hole drilled in one end to insert a small flag. I have about 75 small flags that need to have tags filed off.
MAGNET LETTERS - DEADLINE Sept. 30 - I will be giving each person that agrees to have a sign in there yard a thank you letter with instructions and a save-the-date refigerator magnet. About 75 business cards will need to be punched out of card stock and attached to a self-adhessive magnet. About 75 letters will have to be folded and stuffed with the magnets in envelopes.
SIGNS - OCTOBER 6 (DAY AND EVENING SHIFT) AND OCTOBER 27 (DAY) - October 6th we'll be putting up yard signs at residences across district during the day and M'06 signs in Delaware Township in the evening. October 27th will be putting up more M'06 signs.
LITERATURE DROPS - MONDAY & WEDNESDAY DAYS (or Whenever you like if you have a team of a driver and passenger) - STARTING MONDAY OCT 2 THROUGH MONDAY NOV. 6. This will involve driving through neighborhoods stuffing a piece of literature in the newspaper box (not in mailbox). I will need a helper to ride or drive with me, and teams of a driver and rider would be great.
CANVASSING - MOST SATURDAYS 11-6, SUNDAYS 1-5, AND SOME WEEKDAY EVENINGS 6-8 UNTIL ELECTION - This is door-to-door work: walking, ringing bells, talking to voters, and leaving materials.
BAR HOP/MATCH DROP - SEPT. 28 (TH), OCT. 12 (TH), OCT. 19 (TH), OCT. 25-28, OCT. 31 (T), NOV. 2-4 - Visit bars across the district handing out matches.
TELEPHONING DEM. VOTERS - OCT. 24 - NOV. 5 - We have 1,330 voters to call in ten days reminding them who to vote for and where and when. This can be done anywhere from a scripted list.
ELECTION DAY - NOV. 7 - 45 Polling locations need supporters with signs from 6-9am and 3-6pm. Emery boards will be hnded out a some locations.
Obviously I need lot of help down the road. I need your help to create the perfect storm that could mean a major upset for the Republicans. Please contact me if you can help for any (or all) of the above. Feel free to forward this to people you know.
