Hi. My name is Tracy Saboe. Most of you i think know me. I was very active in the 2008 Campaign. Current Polling has Ron Paul actually leading in SD, so it's just a matter of getting boots on the ground to make sure his supporters show up.

Right now, we have an urgent request. We're need to raise funds to send mailers to the various 3rd parties in South Dakota (all of which are closely alined with Ron Paul's positions.) The Libertarian Party, the Constitution Party, and the Reform Party.

We're just going to mail them out ourselves so we have a chip-in set up. We're only needing about $2,000 for this. And then, after we get this project done, we're going to be sending mailers to Republicans in low population density counties. In total for everything we're probably needing about $20,000, but for now, this is the most urgent because it's more time sensitive and these are much easier converts.

We did this 4 years ago, and I personally know of many people who changed their registration specifically to vote for ron Paul as a result. This time, with him actually having a possibility of winning with a brokered convention, I believe it'll be even more effective.

Please donate whatever you can.

Update.
We've been able to cut some expenses and get a bulk rate, so we've been able to cut our expenses down to about $1,300 instead.

I also had a very generous donor mail me a check for $250, so with that, we only need about $300 more to go and we'll have this completed.

We're stuffing envelopes Sunday. If anybody wants to donate anything more to help us cover costs it would be greatly appreciated.

In addition to this we've bought booths at several events around the state, and I just made an ad buy in our Local TidBits for $200, so we're trying to recoup costs from other projects as well.

this is the OP

Wasnt the original ticker at $2000 or $1300? Or is $300 all thats needed now?

 

[helmuth_hubener]

This is the second chip in. We already raised a bunch, and then the first chip in expired. Also, they found ways to drastically cut the costs of the project, thus giving more bang for the buck.

 

[Bastiat's The Law]

Only need $300?

 

[skyorbit]

Yup. For this project anyway.

 

[ican'tvote]

Bump.

 

[ican'tvote]

Gonna go ahead and bump this again.

 

[ClydeCoulter]

Bump, I'm out till after the 1st, can someone help here ?

Thanks to everyone who helped with the third party mailer project here.
http://sdronpaul.chipin.com/mailer-...istrations-to-republican-to-vote-for-ron-paul The mailers will be going out this week. We had to eat about $300 of the cost ourselves but that's OK.

Now we're on to phase 2. There's a lot of rural republicans that are hard to reach with canvasing. Rural SD is also where our greatest support was for Ron Paul 4 years ago. So we need to make sure they're aware Ron Paul is in the race AND make sure they turn out to vote.

In the previous chip-in I had estimated the cost to be around $15-$20 Thousand. We've since secured the services of a bulk rate shipper who likes Ron Paul, and which the drop in postage, we now believe we'll only need $6000.

Please help us with this project. this is low hanging fruit and we need to make sure they turn out. Primary turnout in this state is typically low, so every vote counts. Every couple percentages points Ron Paul gets is another delegate for us, and another one Romney doesn't get.

I advise that you maybe start a new thread. And spread the message on Facebook, Daily Paul, Mises Forums, Ron Paul Radio, Free Talk Live, etc. Thanks for all you're doing, Tracy. I really hope we can get a lot of people on board with this.

There IS a new thread here http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showth...ul-Win-South-Dakota-Phase-II-(Urgent-Request)

Paul's polling around 30%. And we're even getting endorsements from State Legislators and City Council members. I don't know where that 30% that was going to Santorum will go. Many of them are coming our way. Many will Abstain from voting.
