9th District Rally for Barack Obama

Agenda:

Organized by the 9th District Obama Steering Committee

GET INVOLVED IN THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION OF OUR TIME:
YES WE CAN!

The 9th CD Steering Committee invites you to join us on Sunday, July 27th at 2pm at the Broadway Armory 5917 N. Broadway in Chicago, as we lay out a plan for grassroots action that will lead to victory for the Democrats this fall.

Senior members of the Obama campaign will be on hand to provide a behind the scenes analysis of the National Campaign Strategy and ways in which you can help make Senator Obama our next President.

The Obama campaign has asked us to assist in Davenport and Dubuque Iowa. In 2004, grassroots volunteers and local party organizations led the way to the crucial battleground state of Wisconsin to help John Kerry. This year our participation can help to deliver another important swing state. Four years ago John Kerry lost Iowa by what amounted to five votes per precinct. This year we can make sure that doesn't happen again.

Closer to home, we have many exciting races here in Illinois. On the state legislative level, we have contests featuring exciting young Progressive candidates like State Senator Dan Kotowski, running for re-election, and Aurora Austriaco and Daniel Biss running for State Rep. On the Federal level, Dan Seals is running in the 10th District, in what will be one of the most competitive races in the United States.

This will also be an opportunity to meet your local Democratic Party officials and learn how you can make a difference in your own neighborhood by registering voters and talking to your neighbors.

If you have any questions, please e-mail 9thcdforobama@gmail.com
To RSVP by phone, please call 847-491-0865.

We hope to see you on the 27th.
