Here we are wrapping up the campaign, and we are so close to surprising all the talking heads who said Tom Perriello couldn't possibly be re-elected.
We have identified enough Perriello voters over the last 4 months to win. Now it's up to us to get them out to vote.
The success of this election depends on us....getting out our vote.
There are many of you who are exhausted from your volunteer work, but here I am, asking each of you to volunteer at least 3 more hours between now and the election.
We need 28 canvassers for Sunday the 31st and we have 15
We need canvassers for Monday the 1st especially during the 4 to 7 time slot for a large literature drop.
We need phone callers for Tuesday the 2nd, and perhaps canvassers if we don't finish the literature drop on Monday.
We will also be phoning Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
... Beginning Saturday, we will be working entirely to get out our vote. So we will be contacting only people who are supporting Tom. We will be reminding them to vote on Tuesday the 2nd.
Believe me, I know how difficult it is to do this kind of work. I can only do phoning and canvassing because I know that these are the most effective ways to reach our voters, it's not something I do comfortably either. But we all need to step out of our comfort zone.
If you believe as I do, that winning this election will preserve all we fought for two years ago, we need you to help Tom be successfully re-elected. Let Tom Proulx or I know when you can volunteer as soon as possible.

PS: After tonight's AWESOME time in Charlottesville sitting on stage, I didn't think I could get more fired up. But when I got home Aaron had sent me this clip from Barack Obama in a rainstorm in 2008. Pass it forward...we need everyone out between now and Tuesday. We need to get every vote. Not leave one out there in any home. We need to be sure to let the country know that the 5th District of Virginia still believes in change. Take 3 minutes and listen to Candidate Obama. Click for Barack
Are you ready? Let's get back to work and re-elect Tom Perriello! Knock on every door, ring every phone and push Tom to victory!
