DFA: Presidential Pulse Poll w/Write-in (Gore?) Please Participate

Wed Oct 17, 2007 at 12:32:40 PM PDT

I just checked my Inbox and find that Democracy for America (DFA) is asking for us to vote in their Presidential Pulse Poll

Some of you may have already received it, and voted, but for those of you not on their mailing list, I thought I'd post it in the event you might want to participate.

Here's an opportunity for us "Never-say-never until the fat lady sings" diehard Draft Gore supporters to make our voices heard again.

From the DFA email:

Dear Terre,
 
With the first votes for the presidential nomination officially starting in less then 90 days, it's time for DFA members to make sure America knows where we stand.

Vote for your candidate right now and let your voice be heard!

Is there a consensus candidate that can get more then 66% of your vote and earn the DFA endorsement? Will Senator Obama beat Senator Edwards again by just a few percentage points? Will Senator Clinton pass up Congressman Kucinich and move into the top three? Will our members still vote to draft Al Gore even this late in the race?

Help us answer all these questions by getting out the vote for your candidate right now!

On November 6, exactly one year from Election Day, we will announce your winner and ask all of our members to join the winning campaign¹. Please vote today:

You already have access to videos recorded by five of the candidates created just for DFA members on Iraq and Global Warming². Over the next three weeks we'll hear directly from many of the campaigns again and Senators Edwards and Obama will kick it off with emails at the end of this week.

This is our final Primary Pulse Poll and the results will not be taken lightly. America wants to know who DFA members will support, because you are the boots on the ground that make change happen. We provide what others can't; Action, Community, Training, and Leadership all working to win in every district in every state. We're 600,000 members strong with a track record of electing over 540 progressives to office wince 2004.

When DFA members get active and speak out for a candidate, voters listen.  Now, let's put our support behind the best candidate for president. Please vote right now.

Thank you for everything you do,

Political Director

We have an opportunity to for a first, second, and third choice.  Mine is Write-in Al Gore, then Edwards, then Obama.

Who will yours be?

Thought I'd throw in a little straw poll here, to give you something to do in case you don't want to comment.  At least your click into this diary won't have been completely wasted.   ;o)
