Our Moment Is Here
All that is needed now is your vote. Barack has said many times that this campaign is not about him. It is about all of us. Together we will make history today. Ours is a positive campaign of hope and change. Together we can also beat back the forces of discrimination and defeat Proposition 8. And together we can send enough Democrats to the Congress and the state legislature to start rebuilding this country. We want to make sure that you don't stop at the top - vote the entire ballot today. Here is a message for the day from Barack Obama.

At the polls: This is the one time we ask you not to fly your Obama or Democratic Party colors. If you do, you may be asked to cover it up. So put a jacket over your Obama shirt and put your No on Prop 8 button in your pocket while you're at the polling site. Once you're outside the 100 foot perimeter around a polling place feel free to show your support for the candidates that you believe in once again. |
