TELL YOUR NEIGHBORS!

We're down to the last three days to pass Measure 101 and protect health care for thousands of Oregonians. What can you do?

-- Get your ballot in, if you haven't already. It's too late to mail, but there are Election Drop Boxes across Jackson County, including a new one at the Phoenix Library.

-- Volunteer to knock on doors or ring phones to remind people to get their ballots in by 8 p.m. Tuesday.

-- Make sure your friends and family members get their ballots in.

POPers: Both of our incumbent Republican legislative representatives resigned for other jobs recently and have been replaced by county commissioners with new people. This is a golden opportunity to elect somebody more progressive to one or both of these seats. Both seats take in more than just Wasco County, especially the Senate seat, but as of yet, neither has anybody declared to run against the unelected/appointed incumbents (the appointed Senator was an elected House representative). Deadline for declaring to run for one of these seats is March 6.

Looks like the weather is going to hold. 4pm at the east side of downtown. I will bring some signs and election cards. We will actually stand along the eastern approach to the traffic circle so as not to distract people dealing with the merging in the circle.

Some of us are meeting next Monday (Jan 15) at 4pm near the eastside circle to hold signs up for Measure 101. We won't be standing in the circle itself, but just to the east of it. We have signs for you. We will stay till it is dark, which won't be too long. Cancel if raining. Please come and join us!
