There are just five contests remaining now, and we are only 25 delegates away from securing a majority of pledged delegates. Next Tuesday, a total 103 of delegates will be at stake in the Kentucky and Oregon primaries.
For months now, grassroots supporters have been organizing across Kentucky. We've opened over a dozen offices, from Covington to Paducah. In March, over 1200 supporters were on hand for the opening of the Louisville headquarters. On Monday, Barack spoke to a crowd of over 8000 people in Louisville.
In Convington, local supporter Wellington Lee described the Obama campaign as a "true grass-roots movement."
"I've never seen anything like it, and I've been around this a long time," Lee said.
"It is a campaign that attracts such a cross-section of the population. It really is a movement, and we're hoping to connect like-minded people and empower them to become part of it."
Here's look at some of the offices that are up and running in Kentucky:

Right now, supporters and staff on the ground are gearing up for the final Get Out The Vote canvassing this weekend. We have dozens of events planned in the coming days, and our grassroots phonebankers across the country are making phone calls to undecided voters in Kentucky to help build support here in the final days before the primary.
We need to reach as many Kentucky voters as possible before polls open on Tuesday, and your calls are a key part of our efforts. It only takes a minute to get started. The Kentucky calling campaign runs each day from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM EDT.
