Dear Lois,

Wow. In 2 days, MoveOn members across the nation signed up to host over 900 "Yes We Can" parties to get out the vote for Barack Obama in Texas! And yesterday, Bill Clinton said that if Obama wins Texas on March 4, he'll win the nomination.1

So on Sunday, March 2, we're holding the biggest phone bank in presidential primary history. Folks everywhere will come to parties armed with cell phones—ready to call thousands of Texas MoveOn members whose votes could put Obama over the top on March 4.

But, we don't yet have an Obama party in Cxxxxt.


Can you share your living room for a couple hours on Sunday, March 2, at 4 p.m. to help make Obama our next president? To host a party, click here:

We're aiming for 1,000 Obama parties nationwide. There will be a lot of interest in making calls—people near Crozet just need somewhere to go. If ever there were a Sunday afternoon to help Obama, this is it. (If you would rather not get emails from us about the Democratic primary, just click here.)

You don't have to know anything about Texas voting to host, and you don't need tons of phone lines. We'll get you all the information you need and folks will bring their own phones. We'll also help you build your crowd.


At these parties, we'll make sure folks know about the unusual primary-plus-caucus system in Texas, which allows voters to double their impact. If we can get our 125,000 MoveOn members in Texas to flood primary and caucus locations, Obama will win. But it's up to us to make sure everyone knows how the system works.

By opening up your living room for a couple hours, you can help put Obama over the top. Please sign up to host a "Yes We Can" Obama party here:
