[Chat] Fwd: Adopt a swing state precinct with MoveOn PAC

[WeinsteinM at aol.com]

I noticed that quite a few CV'ers signed up for the last MoveOn PAC activity, 
the Sunday afternoon voter-registration cell-phone phone bank, so I thought 
folks would be interested in this latest way to have an impact on the election 
in the swing states!

Just because you don't live in a 'swing' state doesn't mean you have to miss 
out on the action. We're looking for 10,000 folks to adopt a battleground 
state neighborhood. Can we count on you to be one of those leaders?

Dear MoveOn member,
 We’re going for it.
 Last week, MoveOn PAC members gave over $2.1 million to launch Leave No 
Voter Behind: MoveOn PAC's Neighbor-to-Neighbor Victory Drive to turn out 440,000 
additional votes for Kerry from 10,000 targeted neighborhoods. We're bowled 
over by this level of enthusiasm, but to make it work, we'll also need tens of 
thousands of volunteer leaders like you.
 Just because you don't live in one of the 'swing' states doesn't mean you 
have to sit this election out. We're looking for 10,000 people to adopt a key 
battleground state voting district, or 'precinct'. These volunteers will partner 
with local residents in that precinct to contact a few hundred voters, 
educate them on the issues and the candidates, and turn them out to vote. The Goal: 
40 or more additional votes for Kerry per precinct, enough to tip the balance 
in this close a race. Using new online tools plus coordinated road trips and 
phone calling, we will help you focus your energy where it matters the most.
 Help us Leave No Voter Behind by adopting a precinct. For more info and to

 We know that talking to people about the election might sound intimidating, 
but MoveOn PAC members who have tried it are almost always glad they did, and 
we'll train you ahead of time to make sure you're prepared.

 Florida taught us in 2000 that just a handful of votes can decide a 
presidential election and the fate of a nation, and it may come down to a handful 
again this year. Through personal contact with voters as a part of Leave No Voter 
Behind, you can make that difference. Together we plan take our country back. 
This is our chance to make history--with your help.

Thanks for all that you do.
 Sincerely,
 --Adam Ruben, Field Director
