Election of Our Lifetimes

11/01/2010 Nativegrl77

Tomorrow, the American people will vote in the election of our lifetimes.

This long campaign has tested our resolve. Tomorrow, we will show the pundits, the Republicans, and the world how Democrats rise to the challenge.

In the next 24 hours, I am asking you to do two things: Cast your vote in this historic election and help us protect the votes of every single American.

We have already sent every last dollar to our campaigns. Now we must have the resources in place to put legal teams on the ground so we may act quickly to challenge any election irregularities and protect every last voter.

Contribute $5, $10 or more in the next 24 hours to ensure that every vote is counted fairly.

I know that you have been asked to do a lot in this campaign. I cannot thank you enough for everything that you have already done.

With so many races that are too-close-to-call, we cannot allow any act of voter suppression to keep another Democrat from winning, not with so much at stake for the American people.

Please rush a generous contribution to protect every last voter in this election.

Onward to a great Democratic victory tomorrow!

Nancy Pelosi
Speaker of the House

Express Yourself -Vote Tuesday

	If Women Vote, Washington Will Listen



	We can’t afford to sit this one out — make sure to vote tomorrow.

You’ve heard it before, but it’s worth saying it again: women’s votes change the face of government.

Pollsters and pundits are claiming that many women may sit this election out. But when women don’t vote, we all lose. Learn where your polling location is and make sure to vote tomorrow.

Your vote is your way of expressing what’s important to you. A host of important priorities for women are at stake in this election. For instance, your vote can say:

We took a major step toward meeting women’s health needs by passing a new health care law — being a woman is no longer a pre-existing condition. Let’s keep it that way.
Helping women and their families through hard times, expanding opportunity, and strengthening the economy are important to me. I need our leaders to support a strong safety net and a fair tax system that provides the resources needed for those investments.
I want Congress to make equal pay a priority and fight to make sure that women and their families won’t have to make do with 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man.

The midterm elections will make a profound difference on whether women and families will get the help they need to make ends meet in these difficult times. Women’s votes matter now more than ever. That’s why none of us can afford for women to sit this election out.

Express yourself — make sure to vote tomorrow.

Sincerely,
