Get out the vote, Colorado!

From the Colorado for Obama blog:

Today marked the beginning of the end. Today was the start of GOTV – the final four days, the time when hundreds of thousands of supporters across the nation knock on doors and call voters reminding them to get out the vote.

This evening, we stopped by a staging location in Colorado Springs that was run by a volunteer named Marco.

He said:

We had over 100 phone bankers and nearly 100 canvassers, including about 18 people who came in and hadn’t even signed up to canvass. It’s a wonderful thing.

Steve, the phone bank captain at the staging location, took a second between training volunteers to tell us about his day.

He said:

We had teenagers phonebanking, we even had an 11 year-old making calls with her dad. Everyone had such an upbeat positive attitude, it has been great.

We need all the help we can get these last few days, sign up to volunteer near you!
