Hundreds of Obama supporters packed the house at events across the state to watch last night's first presidential debate.

Linda, a long-time volunteer who set up the standing room only watch party at OFA New Mexico's Albuquerque headquarters, liked what she saw:

"It was pretty amazing! The room was packed. We had really high energy."

More than that, Linda knows that the hard work of dedicated people like her will keep America moving forward:

"I can't think of anything I'd rather do right now than spend all kinds of time just doing everything I can to get President Obama re-elected. This is not the time to sit on the sidelines. This is the time to get involved — now. We need to do all we can to put our power together as one and get President Obama re-elected."

Early voting starts across New Mexico this Tuesday. Commit to vote: http://commit.barackobama.com
