WE HAVE OUR COUNTRY BACK!

I am administering this site for Santa Fe Grassroots for Obama volunteers and friends. Now that the election is over, the topics have broadened to local community events. I encourage each of you to find your passion and make it happen by volunteering and getting others involved. If you'd like to share and spread your volunteer interests, write something up and I'll post it. Along those lines, you'll find things here now that I am personally passionate about. So please join me! My best, Gaye Pollitt

Campaign/Grassroots Integration Moves to Next Stage

At a special meeting on August 7, Santa Fe moved to the next stage of efforts to elect Barack Obama in November.

Gaye Pollitt, Grassroots organizer, and Alfred Johnson, official Campaign for Change regional field director, laid out initiatives where the two groups have integrated all volunteer forces to accomplish campaign strategies:

-Establishing neighborhood teams

-Canvassing neighborhoods
-Staffing the phone bank
-Maintaining databases
-Registering people to vote

Sign up to help with these or other tasks. Please drop in and check with Freddie or her team at the front desk to see how you can help. There's always work to be done!

Remember, the Santa Fe campaign field office is located in Smith's shopping center at St. Michaels and Pacheco, two doors down from Chow's. Just look for the Obama signs in the window.
