Dear colleagues:
I hope all is well with you. I am writing in my capacity as the
2008 LPVa Petition Drive coordinator to request a favor of you.
As you are probably aware, Democratic and Republican primaries
will be held in Virginia on Tuesday, Feb. 12. I urge all LPVa members and
friends to gather petition signatures at polling stations on Tuesday to
help place the Libertarian Party presidential ticket on the ballot in
November.
Petitioning at polling stations during the primaries is
particularly helpful to our petition drive, because people who are able to
vote in these primaries are registered to vote, and we know in what
congressional district and political jurisdiction they are registered to
vote. Thus, all (or nearly all) of the signatures gathered at the polling
stations on Tuesday will be valid signatures.
As I noted in a previous message, if every LPVa member eligible to
gather signatures will invest two-three hours on Feb. 12 at polling
stations during one of the usual "peak times" (6:00 a.m. - 9:00 a.m.,
11:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.), we should be able to
obtain enough signatures that day to finish the petition drive.
Information about the petition drive is available on the petition
drive webpage (www.lpva.com/HTML/2008petitionDrive.html) on the LPVa
website (www.lpva.com). In particular, copies of the petition form upon
which we must gather the signatures is available as a PDF for downloading
at www.lpva.com/Archives/Documents/Forms/2008LPVaPresidentialPetition.pdf.
Thank you for your work for liberty, and for considering my
request. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions
or require any assistance concerning the petition drive. You are welcome
to contact me via e-mail or by calling me at my home near Charlottesville
(434 973-5958).
Take care,
Jim
