Hundreds of volunteers have already poured into the event and Get Out the Vote signup sheets are passing through the crowd. Music is being pumped in through several large sets of speaks placed strategically around the park and we’re hearing chants of Fired Up! Ready to Go!
There is a great atmosphere here, and some of the groups in these pictures are of Obama Organizing Teams. Here in Iowa, because of the intense organizing during the caucuses, tens of thousands of volunteers already knew each other, and these grassroots groups have formed as the foundation of our Get out the Vote efforts. If you’d like to join them, just sign up at your nearest “staging location” by clicking here.
Several weeks ago, we held the “Iowa Call Challenge” and hundreds of Iowans used our Neighbor to Neighbor online call tool to talk with Iowans about Barack and the change we need. We are happy to announce that the top five callers will be here at the rally today meeting Senator Obama. They are:
Gail Dietrich; Victor, Iowa Kevin Healy; Ames, Iowa Dennis Lee; Sergeant Bluff, Iowa Sheryl McNew; Indianola, Iowa Tim O'Neill; Hedrick, Iowa
There is still time to get down here to see Barack here in Des Moines. Click here for details.
