Just got home from canvassing in NC — have to work for a couple of hours and then I’ll be on the phones til polls close. I got the following email from the Moveon.org folks about voter turnout in PA. Please take a few minutes to log onto http://my.barackobama.com/page/votercontact/landing and make some calls encouraging newly registered voters to get out and vote?
The Obama campaign’s plan for victory in Pennsylvania relies on a record turnout by newly registered voters. As of right now, many of them still haven’t voted, and the campaign needs more volunteers to get out the vote.
We’re too close to victory to leave this to chance. Please drop whatever you’re doing and go to the Media Obama office if you can. We’ve come too far to slow down now. Can you help out this afternoon?

And hot off the presses, a What You Can Do email from the Obama campaign:
There are still a few hours to make a big difference in this election.
Before the polls close in Pennsylvania — a crucial battleground state — here’s what you can do:
If you haven’t already — VOTE TODAY:
Find out where to vote
Call or email everyone you know and make sure they’ve voted.
Help turn out voters at a volunteer event near you:
Find the closest event
Go back to your polling location and encourage everyone to stay in line until they vote. Anyone who is in line before the polls close can cast their ballot, no matter how long the line.
If you can’t leave your house, get out the vote by calling voters:
Choose the state you’d like to call
The election in your state is going to be close — and you can help bring the change we need.
Make history right now by voting and helping others vote.
Thanks for everything you’re doing,
Obama for America
