This afternoon across all corners of the Badger State, the Campaign for Change here in Wisconsin conducted trainings to prepare for election day on November 4th. With volunteers showing up in all around the state to learn how to motivate identified Obama supporters and get them to the polls, there were trainings on how to prepare for every possible condition that would face these volunteers come November 4th.
In Madison, Wi, while many were preparing for the Big Ten rival matchup between the University of Wisconsin and Ohio State, over fifty students cramped into an office building basement to learn how they could successfully manage the front lines for this movement for change on election day. After a an introduction by the campaign's youth vote director, Ally Carragher, who spoke about the importance of preparing one month in advance for every conceivable and extraordinary measure that may face these young community organizers, they got down to business.
This election has succeded in the primaries and will succeed here in the general election by expanding the electorate and changing the political map that has dominated American politics in recent memory. Through voter registration and persuading undecided voters to look at Barack's unique position that affords him support from Republicans, Democrats, and Independents; these students learned today about how to come together behind a common purpose and empower eachother to take control of this movement for change.
