Jan 19

Today is election day!

Get out there and Vote for Scott Brown!

Here’s what’s happening for election day activities to ensure we deliver the Scituate vote to Scott Brown!!

1) PHONE CALLS: The campaign has requested volunteers to make calls from the Plymouth phone bank but if you can’t make it to Plymouth, we’d like you to make calls from home to ensure everyone makes it to the polls. If calling from home, phone lists will be provided. The phone bank is located in Plymouth at 74 Long Pond Road. Please reply to me if you can volunteer and what time for either Plymouth or from home. At the very least, we all need to call and email everyone we know to be sure they get out to vote for Scott, and follow up to be sure they did.

2) RIDES TO THE POLLS: If anyone needs a ride, Stephen Coulter and Ryan Owens have volunteered to drive our seniors and/or anyone needing assistance or a ride to the polls. Stephen’s numbers are 781-956-4770 cell or 781-378-2222 home. And Ryan’s number cell number is 314-420-0518.

3) SIGN HOLDING/STANDOUTS: We will be having rush hour stand outs at the Rotary and train station, as well as the High School. Please let me know if you are available and at what time. Jim Bailey is transporting signs to stand out location and the polls. His number is 781-545-5347. Please call Jim if you need a large sign delivered or smaller signs. Jim will also monitor the polling location at the high school to keep an eye on our signs for lighter coverage time periods during the day. (Apparently, many signs have been stolen over the past 2 days).

Finally, The Brown for US Senate Campaign called today to epecifically express their sincere appreciation to all of the Scituate volunteers who have worked so hard over these past weeks to ensure a Brown victory, which is a victory for all of us!!

THANK YOU ALL!
