IA-Seth and rurallib would like your help!
We live in Iowa. Our senator, the very honorable Tom Harkin, is staging a contest among state house office seekers. There are seperate contests for the Iowa house and the Iowa senate. Seth is volunteering for a first-time state house candidate, Gretchen Lawyer. Ms. Lib and I are working for a first time state senate candidate, Sharon Savage.
This is the third round of a three round contest. To have made it this far is quite a feat for both of these neophyte politicians. The prize is $5,000 plus a mailing. This is HUGE money for both campaigns
So could you help us out and go here:
http://www.tomharkin.com/action/building-blue
and vote for Gretchen Lawyer for the house (HD36) and Sharon Savage for the Senate (SD40). We truly appreciate it!
Voting ends June 17th so don't put it off. And I believe you can vote once per email address. Thanks again.

And kick it occassionally. We really need the help!

6. Thanks!
As Rurallib has stated, these funds are greatly appreciated and will surely be put to great use promoting our candidates within our districts. We each face tough opponents, especially being rookie candidates!

This request will only take a moment, but may change our districts for years!

Thanks!

9. Why thank you very much
I have spent the last couple weeks painting road signs. That is about as in the trenches as you can get! Our current senator is slowly embracing the 19th century. He must go far, far away!

As the only two non-incumbents on this list, it's quite an accomplishment. Please help us ensure these rookie candidates have the opportunity to be heard!
