Democracy for NYC has been hosting letter writing events where volunteers write letters to progressive Democrats in swing states (members of Democracy for America) encouraging them to volunteer for Obama and Democrats running for Congress in their area.
From right to left: Julia, Luz, Tracey, Alice, Phyllis & Carlos write letters to members of DemocracyforAmerica.com in Colorado, encouraging them to volunteer for Obama, and Congressional candidates Dina Titus and Jill Derby.
The letter writing events have been so much fun! On Sunday and Tuesday, we gathered at the Gramercy Park apartment of DFNYCer Phyllis. (Pictured above.) Carlos has hosted several letter writing events at the tables at Whole Foods on Houston. At one event, two French people saw our Obama sign and we drafted them to sit down and write letters. Last night I got a call from Gary in Nevada. He thanked me for my letter. He’s a precinct captain in Las Vegas, and he’s supporting Obama and Dina Titus for Congress.
Follow-up needed: Now we need to call the people who received the letters to find out if more of them are volunteering. If you would like to make some phone calls from home, I can send you numbers and a script. Email me at tdenton-at-dfnyc.org, replace -at- with @.
