New Effort Aims to Bank Dems "Golden Week" Votes

Can a group of progressive self-organizers and a few hundred vans turn out 10,000 Ohio votes for Obama?

That's the hope of a loosely-knit group of activists who have launched a Vote Today Ohio campaign to raise the funds and organize volunteer for deployment for Golden Week -- September 30th through October 6th -- during which "any Ohio citizen can walk into an early voting center, register, AND vote on the spot." Vans go for $750 for the week, and each should, organizers predict, produce at least 250 votes.
