GOTV in Ohio!!!
Hey folks -- there's early voting going on in Ohio RIGHT NOW, but it ends THIS MONDAY. The Obama campaign is doing a get-out-the-vote effort right now and asking for people to make calls from home even if you don't live in Ohio:

Create an account and it will give you a list of people to call -- 15 at a time, not a whole lot -- to ask them to get out early. They DO NOT HAVE TO BE REGISTERED! They can register and vote all at once, BUT ONLY THROUGH THE END OF THE DAY THIS MONDAY.
In 2004, we lost Ohio by less than 10 votes per precinct in the state.
If you have an hour free the next couple of days, please make some calls! Early voters just need to head down to their local elections office --
http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/ohvotinglocations/ (county-by-county locations, and you can use google maps to give the voter directions if they need help!)
-- and poll workers will help them register and vote.
They will need to provide either the last 4 digits of their SSN or their entire Ohio driver's license number, and it is a good idea to take some ID and/or a utility bill to prove identity, just in case. Some places are using electronic voting, some are using paper ballots.
