Obama people, start emailing the superdelegates in your state.

[Windy]

We want to make sure that they know that they should vote in accordance with how the votes are cast by their constituents!

Flood them!

And yes, that includes Kerry and Kennedy. Given the fact that Obama got delegates in MA too, they may be able to split their superdelegate votes, however if not then let it be.

This election must be decided by the people, not the party elites!!!

1. I'm already on it. I started last week

[Eurobabe]

2. Good idea

I'll tell my mom to do it too. She is a compulsive complainer. LOL.

3. Emails! Phone calls! Faxes!! Office visits! Party functions.

Politicians do respond to threats to their political longevity. You have to let them know in no uncertain terms that you expect them to support your candidate, and you will consider it a reason to support a primary opponent against them.

Politicians run to the path that is most likely to end up favorable to their own personal political career.

4. Where do you get a list of super-delegates in your state?

I've done some research on this and can't find the answer, if someone has a link to super-delegates would you post it? I'm in Texas, and the way things are going, looks like Texas might be a player.

Peace!

8. that is a good question

17. Here's the link.

Go for it.

20. Thanks. Bookmarking. n/t

[RufusEarl]

22. Thanks for the link, seems some of these supers have already

chosen a candidate. I thought the super-delegates voted in line with whomever wins the popular vote in their state, but according to my finding some in Texas have already decided. I haven't had a chance to vote yet, seems they're getting the cart before the horse in Texas.

Peace!

5. Just did it!

Let the deluge begin! Wooooo Hoooo! K and R

[beachmom]

6. No, that is a bad idea. I read on Kos a couple of weeks ago

that they did NOT want supporters flooding superdelegates with calls, e-mails, etc.

[IsItJustMe]

18. Who are the 'they' that you are refering to here?

[cali]

7. Nope. I'm

just not into this. Perhaps at the end of the voting process, an argument can be made that all the SDs should go with the candidate who gets the most pledged delegates, but I don't like this. Besides there was a post up on kos a few days ago saying that Obama's campaign did not want people doing this.

9. oh boy that will make them happy....

:eyes: :crazy:

11. This is what you get when you have a movement w/a weak leader n/t

[Zueda]

10. NO DON'T...

13. oh yeah all you obama ipod kids..call them call them till late at night..

they will love you for it!!

and do fax them ..email them..go for it!!

[JVS]

12. How about not even saying who you support, but just letting them know that you are concerned about,,

the possibility of super delegates overriding the elected delegates.

[flyarm]

14. oh call them all they will never know you are the ipod kids!!...go for it!!

eom

[JVS]

16. I was thinking a nice old-fashioned letter would be the way to go

[Metric System]

15. Obama supporters only like THE RULES when THE RULES suit Obama. Aren't yout the same people who said

that Florida and Michigan shouldn't count because they didn't follow THE RULES?

[Tarc]

19. Oh, so now Kerry and Kennedy can "split" their superdelegate votes?

Missourians should do the same? New Mexico? Obama gets 40% of the Californian SDs, Hillary gets 30% of South Carolina's, etc...?

:eyes:

The superdelegates are free to vote as they please. Siccing Team Obama at them to nip at their heels like a swarm of nattering mosquitoes is a crass, mob-rules tactic.

These are the rules of the game. Play by them or get out.

[dbackjon]

21. Great Idea - I have contacted the Obama SD's in Arizona

And told them they MUST SWITCH TO CLINTON - will of the people you know, since Hillary won Arizona.
