Runnin' Down a Dream

Posted 10/20/08 by Danielle Gregoire

With just over two weeks left until election day, I'm writing today to ask for your help. We have a million things coming up in the next 15 days and we need your help so please volunteer for as many things as you can. We've been working hard and attending every event we can possibly get to in between the doorknocking and phone calling. Political mail is starting to hit your mailboxes and press coverage is dramatically increasing. 

First, I'm pleased to announce that we'll be joined by Congressman Jim McGovern tomorrow at 4PM at campaign headquarters for a democratic canvass. 

Next on the calendar is our big debate live on WMCT channel 10 on Thursday night. We need people to be standing outside before the debate so that our campaign is visible and that we show our republican opponent just what he's getting into. Then come inside and hear Jamie Eldridge and I talk about our dedication to the people of this district.

Friday night please join us for a pasta supper at the Moose Lodge on Fitchburg Street from 5-8PM. We need set up crew, some folks to help us cook and serve the food, to bake desserts and to help us clean up. It's a great chance to enjoy some dinner and make new friends.

Lieutenant Governor Tim Murray is coming to Marlborough!!!! Come share breakfast with the man in the corner office who has deep roots in Central Mass and really gets what we're all about. Rise and shine, breakfast is at Kennedy's Pub on Maple Street from 7:30AM to 9AM.

Also, now is the time to start thinking about taking election day off from work to help us out. We hope to have between 75-100 volunteers on the ground on election day working as poll checkers, precinct captains and Get Out The Vote workers to ensure that Jamie and I win this thing and go to Boston with all of your interests and concerns in mind!!!

Thank you for all of your help and support to this point, we have a lot of people counting on us. Now's no time to loosen up the pressure, remember, we can sleep on November 5th! Don't hesitate to call me or email if you have any questions at all.

Thanks,
Danielle
