HOWARD DEAN COMING TO TOWN
As of Friday we will have 25 days until this pivotal election. I just got
done watching a couple of outright lies from the latest Pawlenty ad. We
can't take these lying down, and I encourage everyone to commit 5 hours a week for the next 3 weeks.
A reminder that the FINAL DEADLINE for pre-registration for the Nov 7th election is October 17th. You can still register at the polls but if you pre-register you save time. Also, we're encouraging everyone to vote absentee. Check out DFL Secretary of State candidate Mark Ritchie's website for more voting information.
This weekend, Saturday October 14th Wellstone Action is offering a free leadership training from 9am to 5pm. This is a great opportunity to gain important political skills and learn more about organizing and campaigning. Check out Wellstone Action online for more information.
If you can't make it to the training, please help doorknock. UDFL and Stand Up Now organizer Julia will be leading two doorknocking shifts on Saturday one starting at 2:30pm and the other starting around 5:15-5:30pm after the Wellstone training. Both shifts will start in front of Coffman.
A reminder that starting tomorrow and running until next Thursday, and possibly later Oak Street Cinema (309 Oak Street, near the Chipotle on Washington Ave) will be showing the movie "Al Franken: God Spoke." Check out MN Film Arts website for more information. Showings are 7:15pm nightly and weekend matinees at 5:30pm. Just $5 for students.
This weekend (Sunday), UDFL will be heading out to Minnetonka to help out our wonderful House candidate John Benson. Shannon, our great VP will be leading that effort and contact her at mitc0329@umn.edu if you need a ride.
Monday we will be tabling from 11am to 2pm in Coffman at table #4. Stop by if you want to help in our visibility effort.
Monday at 5pm UDFL will be having its weekly meeting in room 307, the Board Room of Coffman.
EVENTS:
*Tuesday October 17th, 6---8pm President's Room, Coffman Memorial Union. Secretary of State candidate debate presented by MPIRG
*Wednesday October 18th, 6---8pm 250 Anderson Hall. CD-5 Candidate Debate presented by MPIRG
*Thursday October 19th, 2:30----5:00pm, Location TBD. DNC Chairman Howard Dean will be on campus meeting with students to talk about the stretch run for this election. This will be followed by a doorknock.
Keep spreading the good word,
-Noah Seligman
UDFL President
