Organizing Edwards Volunteers in Connecticut

by: Aldon Hynes

Sat Jan 12, 2008 at 15:26:13 PM EST


Last month, Kim spent a lot of time working on getting volunteers to head up to canvas in New Hampshire.  After the New Hampshire primary was over, she started her new job working for Common Cause.  At Common Cause, she needs to be non-partisan, so I'm picking up where she left off.

On February 5th, voters from Connecticut will go to the polls to vote for their candidates in the Democratic Presidential primary.  If the race were simply decided by who can raise the most money or get the most media coverage, we have a two-person race.  Those candidates have strong organizations here in Connecticut as well.  However, if you want the candidate with the strongest message who is most capable of bringing about the change we need in Washington you need to look at the other candidate who has finished in the top three in both Iowa and New Hampshire, John Edwards.

Aldon Hynes :: Organizing Edwards Volunteers in Connecticut
The Edwards campaign has hundreds of supporters in Connecticut signed up on the One Corps site.  Many other supporters are connecting via the Connecticut For Edwards mailing list, and via private emails.

On Sunday afternoon, there will be a Candidate Café in Granby.  If you are in the Granby area, please show up and show your support for John Edwards.  In the evening, there will be a volunteer's meeting in Norwalk.  If you can make that, it would be wonderful.  There are other events coming up where we will need speakers.  If you are interested in speaking, or know of events that need some Edwards supporters to show up, please let me know.

Beyond that, we are starting to make phonecalls.  If you can call people in Connecticut, please let me know and I'll help you get up and going.  If you're more of a writer than a talker, consider writing letters to the local newspapers about why you support John Edwards.

Please, get involved however you can.  Join the mailing list, sign up for OneCorp, do some phonebanking, drop me a note and share your ideas, because together we can make a difference.
