Election Day is November 4, next Tuesday. Vote on November 4!

If you witness any obstruction or intimidation on Election Day, call: 1 866 OUR VOTE and report it.

The unease of working families of all hues and varieties is with us.

No less real is the excitement of the 2008 election demanding change, reflected in the historic campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Pedro was an early supporter of Barack Obama and as Pedro has spoken with neighbors and allies around the state, we have witnessed the emergence of the voice of the American people.

This voice will see record-breaking voter participation sweeping away Republican control of the Wisconsin State Assembly and the American (not the Republican)Presidency, returning control of our government to the people, period.

No candidate has ever inspired people like Barack Obama has.

For example, people in Pedro’s district who hardly ever vote turned out on a cold February day and voted for hope and change in the presidential primary, another record-setting event.

Barack Obama has led and inspired millions because he has listened.

From his days as a community organizer, a state senator, a US senator, a veterans’ advocate, and a champion for working families, Barack Obama has led by listening and caring!

The economy, jobs, health care, crime, a drawn-out war in Iraq—all of these issues have us concerned about our families’ future.

And the forces of big business and corruption will not concede and surrender power without a fight.

With our demand for change, an unprecedented program of voter suppression across America and concentrated right here in our backyard in Milwaukee is mounting actions against our right to vote.

Don’t worry and don’t be deterred.

Barack Obama and the Democrats have fought this anti-democratic program at every stage, and there are weapons we have to ensure our right to vote.

Vote on November 4
Do not take ‘no’ for an answer at the polls on Election Day.

Bring your driver's license (and/or other official IDs), and bring mail with your address (like bills, leases and bank statements) to the polls on Election Day in case the election's bureaucracy goofs up or Republicans try to challenge your right to vote!

If you witness any obstruction or intimidation on Election Day. call: 1 866 OUR VOTE and report it.

We will win, and we will not take no for answer.

Vote Barack Obama for President!

As always, please send Pedro your concerns and thoughts.
