ELECTION DAY &ndash; NOVEMBER 2, 2010!<br />
With just 35 days before Election Day we need to make sure we work to get the people out to vote for our candidates. This election could well be the most important election in your lifetime. <br />
<br />
Everyone who votes knows who is running for Governor but as you go down the rest of the ballot many of us know less and less about the candidates. We need to get the message out regarding the statewide and Clinton County candidates. <br />
<br />
We need your help to elect:<br />

HELP IN WRITING LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:<br />
We are still looking for volunteers to write letters to the editor or to sign previously written letters for local and statewide candidates. We need to keep our candidates names before the voters to keep them aware of whom they need to vote for. If you would be willing to help out please e-mail sgwillis1945i@gmail.com and someone will contact you. If you want to send a letter on your own we have attached an informational sheet with this e-mail with letter to the editor submission instructions and election submission deadlines.<br />
