I have some vacation time I need to use up - which state should I volunteer in?

[Lucy Goosey]

Seriously. I'm lucky, I have vacation time I need to use up by the end of the year, and I can afford a plane ticket, and I want Obama in office, and I want to personally do something.

The biggest problem is that I'm not a citizen (I'm a pinko Canadian.) Can I even volunteer?

[Coexist]

1. of course - come to Florida, please!

[babylonsister]

2. Wow. Lucy Goosey is cool by me. Rec'd for some answers! nt

[renie408]

3. I bet you can. And we need you in North Carolina. n/t

[ddeclue]

4. Florida... don't tell them your a Canadian though....

when you are canvassing...

Doug D.

[Lucy Goosey]

12. I'm worried I would sound Canadian. Can I tell them I'm Minnesotan?

[ddeclue]

22. Just avoid the word "aboot"...

:)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Lucky you!

I don't think you have to be a citizen...

I hear they need folks in Ohio...

It's heading for Obama, but it's still very close...

:hi:

[dana_b]

6. Missouri

I thought I saw that it was a dead heat.

[codjh9]

7. Yeah, I'd tend to say MO, NC, maybe FL... maybe even ND or IN. n/t

[clydefrand]

8. We could use you in VA especially in the southwest

[RagAss]

9. Florida Sunshine !

[WorseBeforeBetter]

10. That would be a riot...

Obama wins narrowly in say, Ohio, and the wingnuts challenge it because of Lucy Goosey the pinko volunteer from Canadia.

We'd welcome you down here in NC, but only if you get special permission!

[progressiveforever]

11. Thank you and bless you--Ohio could use you

But anywhere will be greated appreciated..THANK YOU

[POAS]

16. OHIO OHIO OHIO OHIO..wrong place yo post but oh well

We could use you as a runner to keep the troops supplied or lots of other activities that would not involve direct voter involvement.

Heck I have a spare bed in the sun room, you could stay here, hey?

[Lerrad]

24. Yes, Yes, OHIO Needs you!

Ohio was the BIG swing state in the last election, and the Re-pugs stole it from us. And now I fear that it is happening again.

The US Supreme Court ruled in favor of Sec of State Brenner today, but now a new law suite has just been filled contesting the early voter registration/voting once again. They have had four f***ing years to get their shit together, but they wait until two weeks before the election to start up trouble.

ENOUGH!!!

[applexcore]

13. NC! We have mountians and the beach

and I'm sure if you're in any of the DU members area, everyone would be willing to take you out to lunch or buy you a beer.

[Ilsa]

14. Or you could always contact the Obama-Biden campaign and ask them. nt

[kansasblue]

15. North Dakota! going blue

[Lucy Goosey]

17. I have the right accent for that, even. Well, approximately.

[gratefultobelib]

18. Missouri! We already have some volunteers coming in, and I'm having 3 at my

home for 2 weeks. I can always make room for another!

[Historic NY]

19. eh!...........no one would figure it out...tell them your related to the

[Tatiana]

20. I-N-D-I-A-N-A. n/t

[Barack_America]

21. Indiana.

The Obama campaign just transferred a bunch of their staffers there. And you should be able to get a cheap-ish flight into Chicago.

[Tatiana]

25. There are many Chicagoans like myself who are willing to give rides across the border. n/t

[IsItJustMe]

23. Indiana, I just got that feeling that we can pull Indiana through.

[goodgd_yall]

26. Nevada

You'll be able to see the beautiful Sierra Nevada (and gamble, if you like that) in between canvassing.

[sandnsea]

27. COLORADO n/t

[Hamlette]

28. Ask the Obama campaign where they need you the most n/t

[nosillies]

29. You'd fit in fine in Florida

Lots of accents like yours around. Nobody blinks at an "up north" accent in central Florida this time of year.

Seriously, if you decide to go, pm me. I have an empty house sitting there that you are more than welcome to camp out in.
