CALL THE DCCC, AND THE DNC NOW! Tell the about lying robo-calls!!!!

DCCC:
(202) 863-1500

DNC:
202-863-8000

Tell them you want all the local candidates affected by these dirty tricks to put out a press release condemning them, and that you want both of these committee chairs, to put out a press release condemning these tricks. Tell them to look into a joint press conference. We have to hurry!!!!



We must educate voters in the last few hours left, about these dirty tricks and get them to understand Democrats are not behind them.

You have a job DUers! NOW GO DO IT!!!

Here is more information on the dirty robocalls:

4. It doesn't matter if you have...
if you can, please tell them about this. There are enough news stories at local levels, but this needs to be the first thing talked about on CNN.

What happens in some parts of the country affects the other parts. We are united together in success or failure.

12. Yes, it does matter. Remember that those lines are ...
... being used for all manner of campaign related activity. Indeed, jamming the switchboard of the Democratic party headquarters in one state (NH I believe), is one of the acts of Republican dirty tricks from 2004 that was actually proven in court.

Don't do the Republican's work for them. Call you local metro desk, publicize it widely, call the party and other election protection numbers if you have received one, but do not tie up the contact numbers to express your concern.

Don't do one of the Republican's dirty tricks for them!

6. Not to rain on your thread, but they have to know this already.
I just heard MSNBC's Alter mentioning it. That too is a good thing!

8. i'd ask for an emergency court order requiring they call back all voters
and admit any mistakes made in the earlier calls, as well as reveal who funded them!
