Time to get out the vote.

[Larry L. Burks]

There are just a few days left before Election Day.

The time for getting people to register has come and gone.

The time for getting every one out to early vote. Has come and gone.

The time for looking out for dirty tricks is upon us.

They are trying every thing. This election is the dirtiest I have ever seen.
Will they stop at nothing. No.

They are willing to try any thing. And every thing.

Watch your backs.

What we need to be doing right now is. Talking it up. Make plains to make sure that every body makes it to the polls this time.

More people will get to the polls. If you go in some form of group.

Make a voting parties with all of your friends. A Tea Party? Works for me.

Invite every body to come to your party.

Have a house party the night before election.

Invite every body to come over to your house. And spend the night. A sleep over.

Set up a calling net work so that every body calls every body else on the morning of the election. Real early. Early bird gets the worm. The buddy system.

Start calling others right now. Invite every body to meet you at the polls.
Invite others to meet you for breakfast at some restaurant. Eat. Then you all go to the polls together. A happening.

A person will stay in the line longer. Or see it through to the end, If they know every one around them. A groupie type thing.

Offer others a ride to the polls. They are looking for people to give others a ride to the polls. And back home again.

Car pool.

Have a sun rise party at the polls on election day.

Plain to have breakfast with others. At the polls.


You might go so far as to sleep on the side walk out side the door of the polling place. So that you will be the first ones in line on Election Day.

Call your boy friend up and ask him out on a date. Tell him that you want him to sleep in the same sleeping bag as you and keep you warm all night. How could he ever say no. Why would he ever say no?

How cool would that be. Some thing you could tell your grand children about.

Whether your Young now. Or Old now.

Grandma slept on the side walk the day before Election Day. How cool can it get.

Plain to get to the polls two hour before they open.

After you vote. Don't give up and go home.


Remember how they got us with the long lines last time.

It worked so good last time. They are going to try it again this time. Get ready.

Fight back. This time.

Take a lawn chair with you when you go to vote. I would take ten lawn chairs with you when you go to vote.

The number one reason why people jump out of line and go home.

They can't stand for twelve hours in a row. Their legs give out.

Lawn chairs would help.

Bring a lot of bottles of water. One for you. And 300 hundred for those that are around you. Free bottle water. Pass them out to others.

If the lines get real lone. Go buy more bottles of water. And come back and just pass them out to people still standing line.

Make sure their are restrooms. Port-a- potty.

Make sure that you bring an umbrellas to shad your self.

Leave it there for others to use.

May be cool in the mornings or late at night. Bring a coat. If they are calling for rain. A good rain coat. or a box of big trash bags. Plain to camp out in the voter line. Come election day. It's going to happen.

If you smoke. Bring a lot of chewing gum. Candy. Aspirin. Sun glasses. Chap stick. Sun block.

It's going to be cold in the mornings and hot in the afternoon.

Don't be a fair weather voter.

Be a all weather voter.

From time to time you have to remind them less they forget. Voting is a all weather sport. Come ready for any thing. And every thing. Now is the time to make a check list of things to do. Before Election Day and on Election Day. Do it now. Be like Santa Claus. Check it twice. Make a plain. Related in time. And stick to it.

Don't forget your voter card at home. And have all of your ID's at hand. You may need them.

Make a note and place it on the back side of your hand. On you toilet set. You mirror. Make one and place it on your steering wheel of your car so that you don't for get.

If it get hot when you are in line. Bring a big bottle of water. With a sprayer on it. Wet your clothing. This way you can stand the heat better.

Bring blankets. Leave them there for others to use.

Food? Sure. Bring snacks of all kinds. Bring enough for your self. And bring enough for every one else around you in line. Eating is a great way to pass the time.

Have a little extra cash in your pocket. May need to run buy some thing while ever body waits in line.

I would go there with the long hall in mind. The all day sucker.

Do ever thing with in your power to help get them to the voting lines.

Do ever thing with in your power to keep them in the voting lines.

See it through to the end.

Make it stick this time.

Go hole hog. Go for broke.

Good luck on election day.

And good voting.
