"Please Join Me": Call South Dakota and Montana

June 2, 2008

When the polls close in Montana at 8 pm MST tomorrow, it will mark an important milestone in this campaign: the end of the two final contests of the primary season. For many of you, this has been a bit of a roller coaster ride; bouncing from one contest to the next, and riding the momentum from state to state. Many of you are tired, but you’ve stuck with it regardless; Making calls and donating what you can. This campaign has always been about you: your voice, your ideals, your actions. We are here today because of you.

With Florida and Michigan now included, we are just 42.5 delegates from the nomination. Between Montana and South Dakota, there are 31 delegates up for grabs tomorrow. A strong showing there can help push us right to the edge of achieving that goal.

If you’ve ever thought about making calls, now is the time to start. If you’ve made calls in the past, push yourself to go a little further. This is your last chance of this primary season to directly affect change.

Many of you have already taken that step, and have seen the impact it can have. Here are just two examples of people who are hard at work, making sure their voice is heard.

Herschel from Texas…

I did those calls today!!! I made over 300 to Montana, and got a GREAT reception. Please join me making those calls!

YES YOU CAN!!! YES WE CAN!!!

Marsha from Massachusetts…

I made 25 calls to South Dakota yesterday and they were very responsive. Quite a few Obama supporters and the one HRC supporter I talked to was curt, but nice. If I have time tonight I’ll make more calls. They’re pretty easy and the campaign is asking us NOT to leave messages, so you can get thru a list of 25 pretty quick.

Follow their lead and pick up the phone. You can call South Dakota until 9pm Central Time, and Montana until 9pm Mountain Time. When you’re done, feel free to come back here and discuss your experience with the rest of the community.
