Call for Volunteers – Amy Murray
October 28th, 2009
Dear friends,
Thank you so much for your support, help and encouragement these past 10 months!
The campaign has been going very well and I was thrilled last week to have received the endorsements of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Friends have asked how they could help as we near the election. If you can, I could really use your help on our internet campaign and/or at the polls on election day!
Friend to friend emails -
We need to get the word out to at least 23,000 voters to vote for Amy Murray and I need your help. Attached (and at the bottom of this letter) is a sample letter that a friend sent out to his email list telling them that his friend was running for city council – information about me — and asking for their vote. If you can personalize this email (or create a new one) and send it to your email list (or different group lists) – this would really help in getting the word out and make a difference on election day!
Please feel free to personalize the letter, especially if we have organizations in common that could be a reference – Walnut Hills High school, St. Mary School, Hyde PArk, P&G , etc.
In a field race it is all abut name recognition – and when a trusted friend recommends a candidate – people will notice!
Help at the polls on Tuesday, November 3
Can you help at the polls on Tuesday, November 3? If you can help – even for an hour or two – passing out Amy Murray literature it would be greatly appreciated. It is extremely beneficial to have people at the polls – a final chance to make an impact. If you can help – please let me know (amy@electamymurray.com) what time period works best for you.
Note to voters – please remember on election day that we can vote for up to 9 candidates, but in a field race every vote for every candidate moves their total up – so vote for only the candidates that you really want on city council and stop.
Thank you so much for you help and support.
Amy Murray
