Today is the third of a four day Weekend of Action, in which grassroots volunteers across the country will be canvassing and registering voters in one of our largest coordinated field efforts yet.
In Colorado the Weekend of Action started early. Jenn Prosser was at Mile High on Thursday, where volunteers were phonebanking on-site in the hours before Barack's speech . . .
In the hours leading up to Barack's acceptance speech, people took the energy of Mile High and turned it into action. Throughout the stadium, people were registering to vote, signing up to volunteer and even making phone calls to make sure that people across Colorado tuned in to watch Barack's speech.
Cheryl, a volunteer who traveled from Washington state to help out in Colorado, talked to us about the amount of excitement that is flooding Mile High.
She said:
We're calling voters in Colorado and telling them to watch Senator Obama speak tonight... It's packed, we have 100 phones here and I'm looking for phones all the time. They love it and they're so enthusiastic about making calls for Barack.
No matter where you are, you take part in this Weekend of Action by finding an event near you.
