TWO IMPORTANT THINGS YOU CAN DO for the upcoming NOV 7 election

Written by: Maida Schifter on Sep 28, 2006 11:47 AM EDT

1. sign up as a pollwatcher or election judge. Get paid to do it!

2. do phone banking or canvassing for the MDDems Coordinated Campaign, to get voters to use PAPER absentee ballots and to get dropoff voters - who don't usually vote in non-presidential years - to vote this year.
TURNOUT IS CRITICAL

HERE's HOW:


2. HELP THE COORDINATED CAMPAIGN: contact Nick Sukachevin: nsukachevin@....
[I am phone banking this evening at 7832 Wisconsin Ave., Bethesda, 20814) in the Cardin campaign office, just south of the NIH. Join me? 7-9:00)

Please consider stepping up for this opportunity. It is wonderful that "Working Assets" has partnered with Maryland to assist in such an important cause.

Even if you can't make it on election day yourself, would you please help by forwarding this information on to others you know who may be able to help with this critical need?

The money being offered would be, I'm sure, enough to pay a
babysitter....or help defray a day off from your regular job.

Thanks for your help!

P.S.- Working Assets is an amazing company, btw and I urge you to check them out.

They, long ago, came on to the citizen activism scene and have been enabling citizens to "have a voice" in very important social issues for many years now. Plus, they are based in my hometown, San Franscisco.... which comes as
no surprise to me, personally! ;-)

Please help with this effort... either by stepping up yourself... or asking someone you know to, ok?

SPECIAL OPPORTUNITY

Deadlines Looming; Support Election Integrity -- and Get Paid!

Every year, thousands of people in Maryland help make it
possible for citizens to exercise one of their most fundamental
rights -- the right to vote. This year, new voting machines may result in serious problems at the polls. The best way to ensure that every voter's rights are respected is for you to be there -- working at the polls and helping protect voters' right to cast their ballots -- on Election Day.

Deadlines to get hired as a pollworker are approaching fast -- click here for information on how to sign up in your county:

In order to support our democracy, Working Assets and our
partner organizations have created the "Pollworkers for Democracy" project -- a nonpartisan effort to get more people involved in supporting our elections. We'll provide you with information to supplement your pollworker training -- and also a system to report and track any problems on Election Day.

Almost all Maryland counties are still in need of pollworkers for
the November 7th general election. By s igning up as a pollworker, you can support our democratic system...and get paid at the same time!

There are many long-time pollworkers in Maryland waiting for
the opportunity to pass on their wisdom and experience to the
next generation of citizen pollworkers. As our voting systems become more complicated and less transparent, it behooves us as citizens to step in and help our democracy work.
