Dear Brandon,

Election Day is just days away, but you still have plenty of opportunities to make a difference for Barack.

Change never comes without a fight -- and it won't come at all unless each of us does our part.

Will you browse the list of activities below and see what you can fit into your schedule?

WEDNESDAY October 29th
	Last Call for Change House Parties Supporters are coming together on Wednesday, October 29th, to watch Barack's national TV appearance and call voters in battleground states. Talking one-on-one with potential fellow voters is one of the easiest and most effective ways for you to make an impact in this election. Find a Last Call for Change house party near you or sign up to host one.
SATURDAY & SUNDAY November 1st & 2nd
	Last Call for Change Phonebanks There are hundreds of phonebanks being organized in towns and cities across the country -- and there's one right near you. You can come together with fellow supporters and reach out to voters in battleground states. Your call could be the one to get a supporter to the polls or help an undecided voter make up their mind. Find your local Last Call for Change phonebank and sign up now to make a difference.
EVERY DAY through Election Day
	Drive for Change -- New Mexico If you can get out of town for a day or two, will you sign up to drive to New Mexico? Face-to-face contact is the most powerful way to get out the vote or persuade undecided voters in battleground states. Grab a couple friends and join us for a weekend road trip. Sign up today -- New Mexico staff are waiting for your help.
	Call from Home We need to make 300,000 calls to voters in battleground states this weekend. Right from your own home, on your own schedule, you can do your part in just an hour or two by calling voters in Pennsylvania. We'll give you the phone numbers and the talking points. It couldn't be easier. Get your list of Pennsylvania voters to call right now.

Each passing day is an opportunity we'll never have again to change America.

Thanks for all you've done. Now let's make sure we don't wake up on November 5th wondering if we could have done more.

Dear Brandon,

With just 8 days to go, we need to reach out to millions of voters in key battleground states -- and we can't reach them unless everyone pitches in.

Will you join fellow supporters at a Last Call for Change phonebank in your community?

Find an event near you and sign up to make a difference this week.

Thanks,

Nicole

P.S. -- You can start making calls right now from your home. Today John McCain is in Pennsylvania, which is his best path to victory. That's why we've set a goal of making 100,000 calls into Pennsylvania today. Get your list of voters right now:

Brandon --

Time is quickly running out, but you can still make a huge difference in how this election is decided.

It's going to take an unprecedented push by supporters like you to get us over the top -- and there are still plenty of ways you can take this campaign into your own hands.

Help make history. Please check out the activities below and fit as many as you can into your schedule.

Last Call for Change Phonebanks
	This election is far too important and too close for anyone to stay at home. You can help Obama supporters in crucial battleground states find their polling place -- and make sure they cast their vote for change. All it takes is one phone call to get one more vote for Barack. Join supporters from your community at a Last Call for Change phonebank near you.
Drive for Change -- New Mexico
	One of the most powerful ways to make a difference is to talk to swing voters face-to-face or help out at the polls in a battleground state. If you can grab a couple of friends and head out of town for a day or two, New Mexico Campaign for Change staff will be there to greet you and provide everything you need to succeed. No experience is necessary. Sign up today -- there's a volunteer shift in New Mexico with your name on it.
Call from Home
	We need to make hundreds of thousands of calls to voters in battleground states today through Election Day. Right from your own home, on your own schedule, you can call voters in Pennsylvania, a crucial battleground state that is the McCain campaign's best path to victory. We'll give you the phone numbers and the talking points. It couldn't be easier. Get your list of Pennsylvania voters to call right now.

Each passing day is an opportunity we'll never have again to change America. I hope you'll reach out to fellow voters before it's too late to create the change we need.

Thanks for all you do,

Jon

Brandon --

In 2000, the entire election came down to a small number of votes in one county in Florida.

Four years later, we came up short by an average of nine voters per precinct in Ohio.

A small change in voter turnout would have made all the difference. Take it from me, elections matter. And this time, supporters like you can make it happen.

I know this might not be possible for everyone, but I'm asking you to consider volunteering anytime between now and Election Day -- Tuesday, November 4th.

With so much at stake this year, we can't miss any opportunity to get more voters to the polls -- and make sure their votes are counted.

You have an important role to play in this election. Please sign up to volunteer.

We all watched in the last two presidential elections as the course of our nation was determined by a few thousand votes in key battleground states.

After eight years of failed policies and divisive politics, we can take back the White House and set our nation on the right path.

It's up to each of us to make sure we turn this movement for change into millions of more votes on Election Day.

Find out how you can make a difference in these last two days, and help support Barack Obama and Joe Biden:

With your help, we can make history -- and bring the change we need to our country.

Thank you,

Al Gore
