Important Obama Campaign Trip to Pennsylvania, Saturday, June 2nd
This comes from a friend who does a huge amount of this kind critical stuff:
Obama Campaign Trip to Pennsylvania
Saturday, June 2nd, 8:30 am
Departing Port Authority Bus Station, NYC
Dear Friend,
Please join me Saturday, June 2nd for a day of canvassing with the Obama campaign in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley. This is a bellwether district in a swing state, and a short bus ride from New York City.
Recent polling shows the presidential race reverting to a neck-and-neck contest. The Gallup Tracking poll shows a one-point race, Obama 45, Romney 46. Mason-Dixon has Romney up by three points. Rassmussen Tracking has Obama up by two. The CBS News/New York Times poll gives Romney a three point advantage 46 to 43. All indications point to a desperately close election, and we need your help now in swing states, like Pennsylvania. The president’s reelection depends on our presence on the doorsteps in key areas, early and often.
We meet at Port Authority Bus Terminal (South Terminal, 8th Ave. btwn 40th & 41st St.), at 8:30 am Saturday morning, June 2nd. Buses return at 4:05 and 6:10 pm. Round trip on the bus is $41.15. The ride is about 1 hour 40 minutes. A home-cooked lunch is provided.
Thank you to everyone for your time and commitment. Please RSVP by e-mail, phone, or sign up on the Obama campaign website, so I can provide a headcount to Obama’s team in the Lehigh Valley. I look forward to seeing you again.
Best wishes,

Obama Campaign Trip to Pennsylvania
Saturday, April 21st, 8:30 am
Departing Port Authority Bus Station, NYCDear Friend,
Please join me Saturday, April 21st for a day of canvassing with the Obama campaign in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley. This is a bellwether district in a swing state, and a short bus ride from New York City.
The Republican primary circus now turns to Pennsylvania, where the candidates will continue their campaign of nonsense and attacks on President Obama. We need to be there on the doorsteps to show that the president stands with the American people and against the corporate interests and Republican paymasters. This influx of negativity requires a strong response if we are to keep Pennsylvania in the Democratic column in November. You are that response. We need your help on April 21st.
We meet at Port Authority Bus Terminal (South Terminal, 8th Ave. btwn 40th & 41st St.), at 8:30 am Saturday morning, April 21st. Buses return at 4:05 and 6:10 pm. Round trip on the bus is $40.15. The ride is about 1 hour 40 minutes. A hearty, home-cooked lunch is provided.
Thank you to everyone for your time and commitment. Please RSVP by e-mail, phone, or sign up on the Obama campaign website, so I can provide a headcount to Obama’s team in the Lehigh Valley. I look forward to seeing you again.
Best wishes,

GOTV Effort: Voter Registration Trip to Pennsylvania
This effort has been an ongoing one run by two friends of mine. I honestly feel like they have made a real difference in several elections and I encourage everyone who can to participate:
Voter Registration Trip to Pennsylvania
Saturday, March 17th, 8:30 am
Departing Port Authority Bus Station, NYCDear Friend,
Please join me Saturday, March 17th for a day of registering voters in Pennsylvania’s Lehigh Valley. This is a bellwether district in a swing state, and a short bus ride from New York City.
We need your help more than ever. Despite recent encouraging economic news, most analysts still expect a close race in Pennsylvania this year. The Lehigh Valley will be, as always, key to victory. That’s why we’re starting early with a voter registration effort. We continue March 17th with our Get on the Bus trip to Easton, PA to register voters.
We meet at Port Authority Bus Terminal (South Terminal, 8th Ave. btwn 40th & 41st St.), at 8:30 am Saturday morning, March17th. Buses return at 4:05 and 6:10 pm. The ride is about 1 hour 40 minutes. read more »
Join Act Now in Helping John Hall and Joe Sestak beat the Bush Republicans
From now until election day you can spend a weekend making history. This election will decide whether we can continue to rebuild America and effect progressive change or if Republicans will force us backed to failed Bush policies. You can help beat back two Bush Republicans, one in NY State and one in Pennsylvania.
This comes from Act Now:
...join ACT NOW as we team up with Organizing for America and other progressive organizations to go door-to-door on behalf of Congressman John Hall.
RSVP for our Saturday and Sunday canvasses
John Hall represents a historically conservative district, but has been a strong progressive vote in Congress, supporting health care reform, financial reform, and the stimulus package. His opponent, Republican Nan Hayworth, is a self-avowed Reaganite, who believes that the way to prosperity is a freeze on all non-military discretionary spending, a freeze on stimulus spending, and repealing health care reform. read more »
Even MORE important now: New York Bus Trip to Pennsylvania for GOTV
I posted this yesterday but new polls show that this is even MORE
critical than it was when I first posted. The latest poll shows
Sestak, the progressive candidate, within the margin of error against
the Tea Party candidate Toomey. That means we can win this one if we
try. So, let me REPOST what I said yesterday with renewed urgancy:
My friend from the Independent Neighborhood Democrats has been
organizing bus trips to Pennsylvania for GOTV efforts since 2006. In
2008 he and a handful of others from New York almost doubled the
efforts of an understaffed local Dem Party in Pennsylvania’s 8th
Congressional District and seriously helped energize the Democratic
vote. He is doing it again this year, though not on the scale he did
in 2008. But it still could do wonders for Pennsylvania's Senate race.
Here is the info:
"Dear Friend,
Please join me Saturday, October 30th, for a day trip to
Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District to help preserve our
Democratic majority in Congress, and further President Obama’s agenda
for change.It hasn’t been easy, and the forces of the status quo are baying read more »
