Before his Election Night speech last night, Barack sent out this message to suppporters:

I'm about to head to Grant Park to talk to everyone gathered there, but I wanted to write to you first.

We just made history.

And I don't want you to forget how we did it.

You made history every single day during this campaign -- every day you knocked on doors, made a donation, or talked to your family, friends, and neighbors about why you believe it's time for change.

I want to thank all of you who gave your time, talent, and passion to this campaign. We have a lot of work to do to get our country back on track, and I'll be in touch soon about what comes next.

But I want to be very clear about one thing...

All of this happened because of you.

Thank you,
Barack

California Neighbors,

Right next door is the crucial swing state of Nevada, where Election Day has already started.

There are less than 11 days until November 4th, but Early Vote began in Nevada on October 18th.  That means folks who have made up their minds can head to early vote locations across the state and cast their ballots early.

As voters in Nevada make up their minds, we need as many volunteers as possible to help us reach out to voters and make sure they know about Barack and where he stands on the issues.

Can you grab a friend or two and come to Nevada and reach out to voters?

Early Vote is a crucial way for people who can't make it to the polls on Election Day to make their voices heard -- and it's also a vital part of our strategy.  The more supporters who make their voices heard now, the more energy and resources we can devote to our Get Out The Vote efforts closer to Election Day.  And face-to-face interaction with another supporter is the most effective way to encourage Nevadans to take advantage of this opportunity.

No experience is required to come make a difference.  Nevada Campaign for Change staff will give you everything you need to succeed, and local voters will be glad to see people from different states coming together to help bring change to Nevada.

Watch a simple training video and sign up now to let us know you're coming to Nevada:

California,


We are hosting African American Drive for Change for the Get Out The Vote Weekend on October 31st!


We have reached the most pivotal point in this historic election.  In just two weeks time, we will know who the next president will be.  More important than ever before, the time has come for all of us to remember what is at stake in this election, and to do everything in our power to deliver the historic vote that will send Senator Barack Obama to the White House.


On every single issue, the inequities our families face nationwide, particularly in this economic crisis, require the leadership of a Democratic president to be fixed.  We need you to cast your vote in California and help our neighbors in the battleground state of Nevada.


This is your final opportunity to be a part of history.  All of your hard work and sacrifice have led us to this decisive moment.  Please join us in helping our neighboring state of Nevada to deliver 5 Electoral College votes for Obama.  Join us for our final GOTV weekend this October 31st – November 2nd, or October 31st – November 5th.


You can sign up on line at:

You must sign up no later than Sunday October 26, 2008 at 3pm.


Senator Obama has called us all to action,  “I’m asking you to believe, not just in my ability to bring about real change in Washington,   I’m asking you to believe in yours.” 


It is our moment California, it is our time.  Yes We Can!
