Come help us win North Carolina

Image
Sincerely,  Dan Matthews Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2012 13:13:41 -0400 To: danmatt@hotmail.com From: info@barackobama.com Subject: Come help us win North Carolina Dan -- We know voters here in North Carolina are going to have a huge role in deciding the presidential election in a few weeks. Romney and his allies know this, too -- and that's why they're already spending millions of dollars attacking President Obama over the airwaves in North Carolina. It's on us to step up to defend the President's record -- and make sure that voters aren't misled by the negativity and distortions that the other side is churning out. That's why North Carolina is the place to be right now. Georgia student groups are organizing road trips to help with early voting and get-out-the-vote events in the final weeks leading up to Election Day. Can you join an upcoming trip? After you say you're in, a local organizer will get in touch...

Vote early in Oconee County at 10 Court Street

Image
There were nearly 200 advance voters that came into the tiny Oconee County Board of Registration and Elections building immediately south of the Oconee County Courthouse in Watkinsville by 1:30 pm yesterday. I would well imagine that all of them were writing in "Charles Darwin" against Paul Broun for Congress like I did, but I would be wrong in that assumption. I would also like to think they were all voting for Barack Obama for President, but considering almost every one of my Morgan Manor Estates neighbors save the Gwinns, Knights and a few others have Willard "Mitt" Romney signs in their yards, I would think that would be a mistake as well. If you would like an "Obama Y'all" campaign sign for your yard, you have a very small window to which you can get one - and I would suggest you do so right now - at either 706-769-1131 or 706-372-1062 and we are asking a $5.00 donation per sign. Obvious preference for Oconee County, Georgia residents at this ...

Volunteer today. Is this email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser . Obama For America Dear Athens and Oconee County Democrats, The dust has settled, and the debate is over. According to most pundits, Romney won the debate, and now Obama is in trouble in the polls. NY Times analyst Nate Silver estimates that Mitt Romney will gain about +3 points in the polls, turning this race into a dead-tie. But Obama has something that Romney doesn't have. Obama has a passionate grassroots organization of voters like you and me, who are willing to invest some of their time into putting this country on the right path. And with our help, Bara...

Voter Registration

We have just over one month to register as many Democrats as possible so they can vote for our local and state candidates and President Obama. How about we use this Democratic Convention week to inspire ourselves and our fellow Democrats to register to vote! Labor Day afternoon is a great time to go door to door in the county, not to mention, look for neighborhood BBQs. You might even be offered a bite! Onward and upward! Patsy

Talking Points: SCOTUS Health Care Reform Decision

From: Eric Gray eric@georgiademocrat.org Date: June 28, 2012 1:15:00 PM EDT To: Eric Gray eric@georgiademocrat.org Subject: Talking Points: SCOTUS Health Care Reform Decision HEALTH REFORM: Supreme Court Affirms Americans' Right to Quality, Affordable Health Care; Mitt Romney Would Repeal Obamacare and Refight Old Political Battles Key Point:  All three branches of government have now agreed that President Obama's health care law is the right thing to do. The law is already helping millions of Americans and will help millions more in the years to come. It's time to move past the same political battles and fully implement the law. Mitt Romney promises to repeal health reform on "day one," refighting old political battles of the past and denying millions of Americans affordable health care. Today the Supreme Court ruled that Obamacare is constitutional.  The individual mandate was upheld, along with all the reforms that ensure Ameri...

Kemp: Super Tuesday primary date made Georgia relevant | Online Athens

I see Secretary of State Brian Kemp or his wife in line at Athens Academy to pick up our kids maybe twice a week. I wish Georgia was more relevant in the national Presidential campaigns and that President Barack Obama would come to the Caterpillar opening next week. I have not yet received my invitation.
