Vote for Christie Vilsack for DFA Grassroots Allstar.

Just got this email from the Vilsack campaign.

xxxxxxx,

I just got word that we're incredibly close to winning Democracy For America's Grassroots All-Star competition. We're in second place right now, but I know we can close the gap.

All it takes is a couple clicks of your mouse -- but it would mean a big endorsement, volunteer support, and thousands of dollars for our campaign. Not a bad payoff, huh?

Click here to vote for Christie Vilsack as DFA's Grassroots All-Star http://www.grassrootsallstars.com/christie-vilsack

-- and then forward this message to your friends and ask them to vote too!

Winning this contest will be a huge help to us in these final weeks of the campaign. I hope you'll cast your vote now!

Let's go make Christie a winner.

Sincerely,

Jessica Vanden Berg
Christie Vilsack for Iowa


Couple clicks to help get rid of King!

Would be nice to be first but even if she is the DFA runner-up she'll still get some help.

I just read this on their website:

The winner of the 2012 Fall Grassroots All-Star Competition will receive:

A commitment to raise $10,000 in small donations from our national membership.
In-state crowdsourcing emails
An aggregate max-out contribution commitment from Democracy for America PAC over the course of your campaign
Assistance with volunteer recruitment and continued support over the course of your campaign

Two runners-up will receive DFA's endorsement along with:

An aggregate max-out contribution commitment from Democracy for America PAC over the course of your campaign
In-state crowdsourcing emails
Assistance with volunteer recruitment and continued support over the course of your campaign
