I have yard signs and would love to hand them out; please come participate in the mega canvas this Saturday and help get out the vote, and get visibilty for your yard at the same time!
LOCATION: Wal-Mart US 380 (University Dr) & Custer Road in McKinney (meet us on the South Side of the Wal-Mart parking lot near the L strip mall)
This is the last major canvas effort in Collin and we need all hands on deck. The more people that come out, the more doors we can hit. There are still people out there that are uninformed about the early vote time and locations; we have this Saturday to push all that info out and get them to the polls for the last week of early vote.
Please join us in what will prove to be a great final canvas effort for Senator Obama and the down ballot candidates; it is such a small effort with such a huge payoff! It's our time!

Senator Obama needs us.
We have 2 weekends left to help get the vote out, and the time is now.
Not next month, but now.
We had an exceptional push for Voter Registration here in Collin County, over 23,000, yes thousand voters were registered between March and the beginning of September.
Now we need to get them to the polls.
The most effective way to reinforce this is by canvassing and talking to voters. If you aren't comfortable with that, you can be part of the first shift of dropping literature at Democratic doors. The doorknockers include pertinent information on the down ballot candidates and early vote locations and times; we are putting all the important information right in the hands of the voters.
Two weekends which will effect the next 4 years of our lives. Collin County needs all of us to step up and help.
12 hours of your time to change the next 4 years of your life.
Don't you want change?

More than ever, this blockwalking is going to make or break us.
Republicans think they have Collin County in the bag and Obama voters think their vote won't count.
We need to make sure the latter group knows otherwise. Join in this mega-blockwalking event with local candidates, Obama Collin County, the DPCC and TDWCC. Come out to the staging area below. Depending on the # of RSVPs, we will pick how many precincts we can cover and give you instructions upon your arrival.
6:45 - 9am - Drop & Walk - Just put doorhangers on identified "friendly" doors. 9am - 1pm - knock & talk - remind "friendly" homes to come out and vote for Obama and all our local candidates. What to bring: - wear sneakers or other comfortable shoes - bring a bottle of water - bring a knap sack or back pack to carry materials - bring a pen to record voter information. Most important, bring your winning spirit.
We can do it Collin County! Further instructions will be sent to RSVPs by Friday morning.
