Barack put it best, so I’ll just use his words…

For those of you who are getting a little cocky I have two words for you: New Hampshire. I learned right here that you can’t let up or pay too much attention to the polls. We’ve got to keep making our case for change; we’ve got to keep fighting for every vote; we’ve got to keep running through that finish line. This election is too important to take anything for granted. The future that you and I seek for our children is too important to let up now. The time for change has come.

I spent several hours today at my local headquarters helping out however I could, including making calls. The process was surprisingly easy and the staff and fellow supporters were very friendly and helpful.

Despite the headquarters bustling with activity, there is still plenty of work to do. This campaign needs all the help it can get to put Barack and Joe on top Tuesday evening. There are many voters out there that we (you) can help contact before they cast their vote.

No amount of time is too small – there was a gentleman that sat next to me that only had a half hour to spare, but he came in anyway and the staff quickly set him up and he was making calls to critical swing states within a couple of minutes.

Kids for Obama Coloring Sheets

I was volunteering at my local headquarters this evening – doing some data entry, making calls, hanging signs, etc. There were some kids off to the side in a small area they had setup for them. I took some time to engage these kids and help them make a sign to hang on the wall of the headquarters.

In doing this I was reminded of something that I saw a while ago and thought was pretty neat – Obama coloring sheets for kids. The one I found online was of the older logo, so I took a couple minutes to update and post them here.

So, if you are going into a headquarters to volunteer, print some of these sheets off and take along some crayons. It’s a great way to get kids engaged in the process…

Free Printable Obama “Vote” Signs

I though I’d start posting some vote signs as election day is just around the corner and early voting is already underway in many states. If you can vote early, find your polling place and go do so!

I’ve provided these signs as ready-to-print PDFs in both standard letter paper (8½ by 11 inches) and larger tabloid paper (17 by 11 inches) sized versions. Every home printer can handle the standard paper size and most copy shops can print the larger tabloid size.  See my How to Create Your Own Signs post for tips on how to make your own.
