I received a few important messages from Linda Lagana, who is closely tied to the NH campaign.
Linda gave me permission to post her messages here.
The messages are as follows.
We were told by the official campaign this past weekend that canvassing and phone banking is our number one priority. If we want to win this election, we must identify our voters. Tom Lizardo spelled out the entire strategy for us. He could not stress enough that any other activities at best are a waste of our time and at worst could hurt the campaign at this point in the race.
We have thousands of doors that we are told we must knock on and very VERY few people helping with this task.
The only contact you need is to stay tuned to both the Nashua and Concord meetup calendars for when and where. It would be most helpful if you would RSVP to our calendars at this point so we have a head count for each events.
We will post and and all official events on these two calendars.
I will warn you that this canvassing stuff is very tedious, time consuming and frustrating in that most people are not home. The maps we are given are anything but easy to follow. All the more reason we need boots on the ground up here. This is way too much work for the dozen or so of us who show up each weekend to do this work. Some of us are burning out and in need of a break.
Thanks for any help you can give us up here. Tom made it clear that if we don't prove to the country that Ron is for real by making an impressive showing in the NH primary, our chances of real progress down the road will be greatly reduced. NH is where it's at.

I've heard rumor that we have some very wealthy supporters who are looking for ways to help. I suggest we consider a starting some sort of fund to house people who want to help here in NH. I'm not sure where they might be able to stay, but it killed me to learn that somebody was willing to fork over 100 grand in order for the rally to go forward as planned in Philly when we don't have enough people here in NH to do the work that the official campaign is calling critical for a victory. Perhaps that was just a rumor, I don't know. If there was any truth to that rumor, 100 grand would buy us a lot of rooms for out of state helpers. I suggest if there are supporters out there with that much spare change, they consider ways to help is win this critical victory here in NH.
Yes! Go ahead and get my message posted.
Thanks for the help.

We need fewer fingertips on the keyboards, and more boots on the ground!
