Attention DU I could use your help!
Edited on Wed Sep-13-06 11:13 PM by LeviathanCrumbling
Right now MoveOn.Org needs to find office space asap for Operation Democracy so that we can start our get out the vote work. We are looking for spaces ASAP that are $650 a month or less including utilities and at least 600sq feet. Any leads would be greatly appreciated, please post or PM me if you have any leads or if you would like to help. (

The locations that we need are Tucson AZ, Scottsdale (Phoenix) AZ, Fort Lauderdale FL, and Saratoga Springs NY(or in the same district as Saratoga Springs.)

One side note because of election laws we are forbidden to get a space as a political favor , the rule is that if a republican group tried to get in the space would they be offered the same terms.

To win this election we are all going to need to pull together.

p.s. We need to be handicap accessible, and carpeting is important too because of all the people that will be making calls.

4. I did in the AZ forum because there are two locations there
but the state forums have a habit of standing still and time is critical right now.

We are all working 16 hour days right now and there isn't enough time in the world to get done everything that we wish we could, but I am betting that DU proves to be an effective place to look for help.

6. thank you, keep them coming if you find anymore
I e-mailed them hopefully the place is big enough, we need to be able to fit a good number of volunteers into the office to make GOTV calls.

DU rules!

5. Thats what I heard from the Realtor that laughed at me
The professionals are not interested in helping us. The term is to short and the money isn't great either, if you know of any empty store fronts, offices, ect... that you think would work in Glen falls that would be great!

anyone who has a digital camera or knows someone with one who wouldn't mind swinging by Gold Star in Glenn Falls would be a great help.

28. Cool - let me know if you need me to stop by any place
And check it out or take pics. Some areas down here, well, as in any large metropolitan area - you don't want to be there in the evening.
