MoveOn Get Out the Vote Campaign

[Eric J in MN]

From MoveOn PAC:

If anyone can do this, together we can. The best proven model for getting out votes like this requires paid organizers helping thousands of volunteers ensure that their neighbors get to the polls. It will cost $5 million to make this happen. So we can't do this without you.

If we can raise the first $1 million in the next 48 hours, we'll go for it. You can sponsor a precinct in a battleground state for only $500 and make a huge difference in this election. But whether you can give $25 or $2,500, we're asking you to help launch this program today. Just go to:

4. The letter is dated August 3, so I guess the 48 hours

is up sometime on August 5, 2004.


I'm sure they still appreciate contributions after August 5, though.

From www.moveonpac.org

We were hoping folks would be excited about the launch of Leave No Voter Behind, MoveOn’s drive to turn out hundreds of thousands of unlikely voters for Kerry in key battleground states. But we never dreamed that your response would be so big: you joined more than 20,000 MoveOn members in giving the program an amazing and record-breaking launch. Since Tuesday, you and the other donors have given over $1.6 million to get this ambitious vote drive started, and we’re humbled and inspired by your generosity. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Today we’re asking you to take the next step – reaching out to friends and family to put Leave No Voter Behind over the top. As you know, the Leave No Voter Behind election-winning ground campaign will cost about $5 million. If just 700 of us agree to raise $5,000 each by the end of the month – enough to support 10 neighborhoods — we can cover the whole rest of the plan. If that’s too steep for you, think about raising $500 by the end of the month to support one targeted neighborhood. It’s easier than you think, it feels good, and it’s critically important in our movement to beat Bush. We’ll help you every step of the way.
