25 Days Left: Volunteer to Win

It's easy to sit in front of a computer screen and survey the latest polls, surf the blogs, check e-mail, and pontificate on politics.

It's harder to get up from that screen and go to work to ensure a Democratic victory. What are you doing to help candidates like Maria Cantwell, Darcy Burner, and Peter Goldmark win?

What are you doing to defeat right-wing initiatives? What are you doing to help keep the state Legislature in Democratic hands?

Are you doorbelling? Leafleting? Phonebanking? Registering friends and family to vote? Are you volunteering?

Blogging is not enough. Going to social events like Drinking Liberally to have a good time and a good drink is not enough. That's why I'm volunteering. I have committed to helping get out the vote for Democrats on Election Day. I'll be knocking on doors, asking voters if they've gone to the polls or mailed in their absentee ballot. Other NPI members will be doing the same.

Have you committed? Are you volunteering?

If not, it's time to get involved. To sign-up to volunteer, call the State Democrats and the Coordinated Campaign at (206)-352-3963. Here's a list of the coordinated campaign offices throughout the state with additional phone numbers for contact:
