Help Make a Vote COUNT!
Ok- so lately I’ve felt like being active with the campaigning— just wanted to spread the word- influence people where it matters— anything we can at this point to make the difference to help create change- the much needed change this Country oh so needs….
A few of my friends/acquaintances are going to the swing states and doing volunteer work on the Obama campaign or conducting voter registration drives- boy- if I could get away for a week– believe me- this is something I would do too….But….I have way too much to get caught up on and too many projects that I can’t fall behind on….Thus– giving you these tips instead…
A couple came in from DJ SCRIBE and the others from my girl Asya of Fusicology
“FEEL GOOD : VOTE” This soap for your shower embossed with the giant word VOTE on one side and FEEL GOOD on the other… a daily reminder to register to vote, and then… VOTE! kalastyle.com
VOTING NOTICE: An important reminder not to go to the polls wearing any Obama (or whoever you are voting for) shirts, pins, hats, etc. It is against the law and will be grounds to have the polling officials to turn you away. This is considered campaigning and no one can campaign within X amount of feet of the polls. Spread the Word!
DECLARE YOURSELF! Register to vote @ DeclareYourself.com | Show your support with an Obama USB Wristband obama08wristband.com.
Last but not least, please register to vote, and do what you can to get your friends registered. some people think Obama is going to win without a fight, but it’s not going to be easy at all. the stealing of the election has already begun. come to the ft. greene film society screening on oct 8 to find out more. DJ Scribe is going to Ohio next week (right after the Raw Fusion party) for a week to volunteer with Vote Today Ohio. Few people (even Ohioans) know that there is a new early voting week in Ohio. VTO is organizing a massive campaign to get Obama supporters to the polls that week to vote. if you are interested in going, the organization can help you find a ride and a place to stay. if you are not in the position to leave town for a week, check out the Obama or MoveOn websites for the many other opportunities to help (weekend trips to PA, phoning meetups, etc). Encourage others to Vote: This is very important.
Finally-my friend Jill Ettinger over at Universal sent this over— for all my Jewish homies and their relatives…
