On Tuesday, January 19th, there’s a special election in Massachusetts
to fill Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat.
While the large majority of Massachusetts voters support the
Democratic candidate, Attorney General Martha Coakley, special
interests have poured in hundreds of thousands of dollars to mislead
voters — and the traditionally low turnout in special elections means
this race could be very, very close.
The stakes here are incredibly high. You know how hard we’ve fought
and how close we’ve come to finally passing health reform. But also
know this: To get the job done, we need Martha Coakley’s vote in the
Senate.
No matter where you live, you can play an essential role. OFA
volunteers around the country are calling key Massachusetts voters and
making sure they know when and where to vote, and how important
electing Martha Coakley is to the country.
Each voter we reach could be the one who tips the balance.
Can you help by calling potential voters in Massachusetts?
Offering information to voters on how to participate is a great
service, and it can be a lot of fun. You can take as much or as little
time as you like, and no prior experience is necessary.
Making these calls could be the single most important thing you can do
right now to ensure the passage of health reform.
But the impact of this election goes well beyond health reform —
Martha Coakley will be a vital ally to President Obama in helping our
families get back to work, launching a clean-energy economy, and
reining in the Wall Street abuses that still put so many Americans at
risk.
But it all comes down to you. We need you to help get the word out, so
please start calling today:
