The home stretch: Come get out the vote in your area

By Terrell M., Community Organizer - Milwaukee on

My wife, Felesia, and I have been organizing teams of volunteers on the north side of Milwaukee since 2009. In the past few months, volunteer community organizers like us across Wisconsin have been showing our state and the nation what can happen when we work together.

We're facing an important election on June 5th, and it's almost here – we need to finish strong and get voters to the polls for Tom Barrett and all the Democratic candidates on the ballot.

For the home stretch, volunteers from Kenosha to Superior are gathering for get-out-the-vote events – and your area is going to be a major hub this weekend.

Across Wisconsin, we're going door to door to talk to our friends and neighbors about the urgency and importance of voting on June 5th. This election is going to be close, so we need to make sure voters are ready to go to their polling location to vote for Tom Barrett on Tuesday.

We need all hands on deck -- can you make it?

Your efforts this weekend will help decide what happens on Election Day. In a race like this one, every single vote counts – and every conversation you have can make all the difference.

We've worked long and hard to get to this point – let's get out there and win!
