New York/Philadelphia Voter Regestration Effort

Effort now can win big in November. There are already voter reg
efforts in nearby states. This comes from someone at IND:

Dear Friends,

I'm excited to announce that our first voter registration trip to
Philadelphia will take place Saturday, July 5th. I'm very pleased
that we are partnering with Pennsylvania ACORN. Upon arrival in
Philadelphia, we will report to their office for a brief training
session, after which we will be dispatched to the streets crawling
with unregistered voters eager for our assistance.

Pennsylvania has been a pivotal swing state over the last several
presidential election cycles. Indeed, Republican strategists have
made no secret that they view Pennsylvania as a key target in 2008.
We must make sure that Pennsylvania is firmly in the Obama column. At
stake is not only the White House, but most certainly the Supreme
Court, where 88 year old John Paul Stevens holds the deciding vote on
issues such as a woman's right to choose, Affirmative Action, right to
trial, and a host of other civil liberties.

We will leave New York at 8:00 am on the Apex Chinatown bus, $20 round
trip, departing from 88 East Broadway in Manhattan, returning on the
8:00 pm bus from Philadelphia. (Of course, you may return earlier or
later, if you wish.) The trip takes about two hours. You will need
to book your tickets online ASAP, as seats are on a first come first
served basis. Please use the link below to book and print your e-
Tickets. Be sure to bring your printed e-Tickets with you Saturday
morning to board the bus.

If you cannot make the July 5th trip, but would be interested in a
trip later this summer, please let me know that, too. I will be
setting subsequent dates in the coming weeks.

Please RSVP to this e-mail address ( nyvolunteers_at_gmail.com ) so I can
provide an accurate headcount to ACORN.

Thank you to everyone with my very best wishes,
