What i did at work this week.
Having a job delivering the local newspaper i had an idea to help get out the vote. I asked my employer if it would be OK if i included a small flier and voter registration forms in the papers on my route.I was surprised the answer was that it was OK as long as i did not included any partisan material.

What i then did was print a letter that read " These are difficult times, with many hard choices ahead. Make sure your voice is heard, vote Nov.2nd" That was approved, so them i made 2,000 copies. I then went to the local library and they hooked me up with 2,000 voter registration forms.

So all this week i have been bundling the two items together with the paper, and delivering it all over town.

They say my states a Bush state, but if you listen to the common man/woman on the street they have no use for him. The trouble lies in getting these depressed, disenfranchised people out to vote i believe Kerry could very well Take it here in N.C.

Lets hope some of them take the bait ;)

Way to go! There are a lot of us trying hard to put NC in the Kerry column. We're only 5 points down in the latest poll. WE CAN DO IT! Keep it up!
