Good News Out of North Carolina
by Max Mattia, DFNC
Max Mattia is a Deaniac and impressive state group grassroots organizer
in North Carolina. Several months ago, Alta and I were on a phone
call with a number of other people from Iowa and Max happened to be on that
call. He's really got it together, so of course, Alta and I were
trying to figure out how we could get him to move to Iowa. No
luck in that department, I'm afraid. However, he may be right
where he is needed most. Read this update I got from him last
night. You need to get your hopes up that we CAN do this
thing? Max offers up some great local political analysis that may
have a major impact on the race for the presidency.
We are
kicking major *ss in Wake County and Durham here in North
Carolina. Our grassroots are mobilizing like they never have
before. Daily canvassing of target precincts, massive reachout to
the Latino and African American community. Registering new Dems at an
unprecedented rate. Hundreds of volunteers coming out of the woodwork.
Political
analysts believe that if Wake County [goes Democrat] by 15% that Dems
will win NC, and if Dems win NC it is near impossible for Bush to win
the electoral college, and if Bush can't win electoral college
votes … then fiascos like Florida don't matter.
So … preventing Florida from happening again is in the volunteer hands of Wake County!!!
NET voter registration for Wake County August 6 – September 10
DEM 3053 42.8%
REP 1986 27.8%
UNA 2057 28.8%
