Organize for Barack during Derby Week

Personal contact at a local level is the most effective way to identify existing Obama supporters -- and introduce undecided voters to the kind of change you and I are working to bring about.

Thousands of people will be out for Derby Week, and it's the perfect place to reach out to potential supporters. From Thursday to Saturday, we'll be signing up supporters at Derby events, and on Sunday, we'll go out and canvass in our neighborhoods.

No prior experience is needed. Sign up on the form on the right for one or more of the Derby volunteer opportunities below.

We also have Derby Packets for supporters who want to spread the word about Senator Obama at their Derby parties. Pick up a Derby Packet from Obama HQ at 900 East Market Street any time between now and Saturday, May 4th. If you pick up a Derby Packet to use at your Oaks or Derby party and return it to our office the following week, you’ll receive a complimentary "Obama at the Derby" button (while supplies last).
