Here is an update of Local Obama happenings here in Michiana!

*** March 4th Watch Party & Obama Gear Raffle ***
*** Downtown South Bend Democratic Party Headquarters ***
Join us in Downtown South Bend at 7:30 and watch the historic returns roll in. We'll have food, drink and prizes from our fundraising raffle. Win some of the hard to get official campaign shirts, buttons and signs! That?s right, we have some. And your name is on it. Join us next Tuesday, buy some tickets. Win some campaign booty.

*** Indiana Campaign Update ***
*** Ohio, Ohio, Ohio! Organize, Organize, Organize! ***
We're gotten updates from the campaign headquarters in Chicago, and there?s lots planned to support the campaign here in Indiana. In the meantime, every person receiving this should do what you can to support the campaign in Ohio! Fight to exceed the goal of knocking 1 million doors and making 1 million calls.

Beyond Ohio? Get organized, and expand our volunteer network. Reach out to family, friends, the person you talked to about Barack at Starbucks last week, everyone. When the campaign "officially" kicks off here in the coming weeks, let stun their field operatives with our numbers. We have an impressive list so far, let?s keep it growing!

Email Gus Granger to get on the list and join the ?Yes We Can Michiana!? group on the site for updates (this group is to be used for updates and announcements only. We are HIGHLY discouraging general discussions in this group. Consider this group the volunteer "Bat phone", so let's keep the line open:

*** Voter Registration ***
Remember, to vote on May 6th, you need to be registered a month beforehand. So, register yourself, your family, friends, the person you talked to about Barack at Starbucks last week, everyone (sound familiar?). Following next Tuesday, we?ll deploy ourselves to do more proactive voter registration (don't let that stop you if you just cant wait!).

*** Statewide Organizational Meeting in April ***
The campaign is planning a statewide planning and training meeting in early April for canvassing, phone banking, general organizing, etc. Stay tuned!

Fired Up,

Gus Granger
