A win for Lawson is a win for us all

I am only a poor college student, but I am going to donate, even if I have to borrow to do it. I am going to do phone banking on Saturday as well. I know that if I do not help the Lawson campaign, and he loses by a small margin, then I will regret it for at least the next two years.

Get off the forums (not permanently of course) and make calls for Dr. Lawson! I'm doing it, it's easy, it's all laid out for you. You're not talking to random voters, these are fellow supporters and we just want them to help with a final push before election day.
No matter who wins my district I'm still screwed. I'm doing this for Dr. Lawson to cancel out my Representative's vote!

Definitely. I'm amazed at how easy it is. Easier than Ron Paul's Precinct Leader program I would say. Every liberty-minded candidate needs an outreach tool like this.
I think that the Lawson campaign has run a great campaign. They have learned some new tricks and developed some great tools. After the election, Ron Paul supporters from around the country need to discuss our triumphs and our failures. If we evaluate this election cycle, we can learn strategies for moving forward. The Lawson campaign has a lot to add to that discussion.
I think I am going to make some phone calls on Saturday too.

Thank you all who are helping in any way. We are kicking tail and taking names. The more volunteers we have, the better chance for success we will have. Regardless of the outcome, we are causing serious pain to the establishment and I gotta tell you, it feels GREAT.
As I sit here typing , I am surrounded by people. We are doing a phonebank to get poll workers for 11/4. As stated, there will be 194 spots open for 12 hours, so we can use help from the surrounding area to come help. Bob Conley can use help also, so if you are closer to SC, perhaps you would do better there. Either way, please contact us and "be a part of it"
Please help make calls, sign up here:
http://www.lawsonforcongress.com/outreach
These two (and one other out of the shot) are making calls and filling slots on the grids posted on the walls:
We, also, got 125,000 pushcards today and pare putting them in our remaining 6000 constitutions.
At the rate of early voting and massive turnout, we are going to run-out of constitutions. Martin and BJ are working the numbers to see if we can get another load of 10k, please give them the confidence by donating here: http://www.lawsonforcongress.com/donate
Now, let me tell you about my day...
I went to a another polling place, it was a bit surreal. It had a quarter of the volume as yesterdays place but 4xs more democrat "sample ballot" folks. They were tripping over each other while I quietly waited for my turn. My pitch is refined and killing em; takes me seconds to make a point that is hard to ignore and I've pretty much broken the R vs D barrier. In fact, within an hour I had a few people coming out and visibly giving me the thumbs up and one guy in particular came out and loudly said, "Congratulations, that is the first republican I have ever voted for."
Well, you can imagine the faces of the "sample ballot" folk. They were suddenly very interested in BJ Lawson, so I started pitching them. The result is some new Dems for Lawson
Now, when they did their ballot pitch, instead of pushing the straight slate option, they were explaining how to override a single box and passing the voters off to me with a "you might want to listen to this guy 
". It was awesome.
The kicker was even better though. There was a local boy there working for a non-partisan school board candidate. He would stay close and if I heard the ol' "I cannot vote republican" he would jump in with a, "Joe, you know me and you know I'm a dyed in the wool democrat. I think you should take another look at what that guy is handing you. Lawson is a good man"
To say the least, it was a good day on the front lines

Just donated another twenty bucks, I feel like my money is being well spent with Lawson's campaign.

Thanks for the update and the report from the front line.. it makes me feel so much better about donating again today.
Here's something to pass along (in case you all there at the office haven't noticed it.. ) ..
A Google search for - congressman david price - now has the "David's Price" site near the top. Ha. Grassroots power at work.

Truly is a pleasure to share this... Everyone appreciates what we are doing for each other, most of all, at this point, BJ... And he definitely conveys it; to me, hence you. Maybe I'll dig out my vidcam and get a candid interview...
Kokesh is here,
he was in the office when I came back in from a poll a couple days ago, he didn't know I was around...I had my camera booted on my phone and got this candid as my greeting registered; 
and here he is catching me taking candids ...
Dr. Lawson continues to press the flesh
And I still like this picture

BJ in recent vid: "These signs will come in handy one way or another"
Appreciate what everyone is doing out there -- just wanted to let you know that we did stay up for a nightly video update:
