5 More Days and a Wake Up!

I know some of you are tired of all the political commercials, phone calls, knocks on the door, etc., but this is the price to pay to change our country. ABM is sending out big props to everyone who is volunteering and/or contibuting to a campaign. It's never been more important so let's see this through til the finish.

Also the ABM doesn't want to hear any whining or complaining about how you waited in line for 5 hours. We will wait that long for concert tickets or to see a movie on opening night, so we should be willing to wait to cast the most important (and for many first) vote of our lifetime. So wait! Take snacks, your IPOD, a good book to read, your best friend to talk to...whatever it takes to get you through the wait. Vote early if you can because polls will be madhouses on election day.

Finally, if someone says you are not on the rolls or can't vote or try to intimidate you or anyone else in any way, call 1-877-874-6226 to the Voter Protection Center. They have lawyers on call all over America to help clear up any issues.


Once again, much love to all you out there fighting to make America better. The ABM hopes this video will help to inspire you to fight a little harder, because...it's 5 more days til a wake up!

I've taken great pride in the volunteer work my mom, daughter and I have done for the Obama campaign. It's not easy handling rejection with all the phone calls and door knocking but it when we come across folks who are eager to talk with us, it makes it all worth it. I'll be working at the polls on election day too--handing out literature that folks hate and calling people who haven't voted yet to urge them to get out there and even driving folks to the polls to make sure that they DO vote! Thanks for the props my friend...I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Much love,
