ACT has spent all year laying the groundwork for Democratic victories in federal, state and local elections. But now, success lies in your hands.
Thousands of paid canvassers have prepared for the largest get-out-the-vote effort in history. With your help, we've registered record numbers of new voters and met with millions of targeted voters at their doorsteps. Now we need your help getting these voters to the polls.
ACT needs over 25,000 volunteers on Election Day. Sign up today.
October is the month ACT was built for. Here are just a few highlights from the month so far:
The Vote for Change Tour is underway. The 37 show tour (presented by MoveOn PAC to benefit ACT) is introducing hundreds of thousands of music fans to ACT. Monday's finale in Washington DC will be televised on Sundance Channel and webcast by Real Networks. More info here.
Fighting back in Ohio! Over 125,000 of you have signed our petition to Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell demanding that he accepts all voter registration forms. Your outrage -- and the media attention it has fueled --forced him to back down. Read the petition here.
Rental Vans. We asked for your help funding the vans needed to transport volunteers and voters on Election Day. Thousands of you responded contributing over $225,000. $136.68 is the average daily cost of a rental van. Donate today.
Along with you there are over 225,000 ACTivists receiving this message today. Each one of us has an important role to play in the weeks ahead. Please make your Election Day plans today, recruit your friends, make contact with an ACT office and be prepared for the challenge of a lifetime.
Together, we can do this... and we will win.
Sign up now to volunteer on Election Day.
With great appreciation,
