NOVEMBER 4: Arizona Democratic Party Election Night Celebrations

AZ School Works is proud to be a co-sponsor of the Maricopa County Democratic Party Election Night Celebration from 7:00 - 9:00pm at the Wyndham Phoenix (50 E. Adams Street). At 9:00pm, we will then head over to the main ballroom for the Arizona Democratic Party Celebration. I would like to extend a personal invitation to all our supporters to join us for what we hope will be an historic and tremendously exciting evening as we watch the election results come in.

Please help elect one of TFA's very own even if you can just spare an hour or two in West-Central Phoenix. You can even hand out campaign lit. to Trick-Or-Treaters' parents bored to death on 10/31. It's better to ACT NOW than to react later! Call Carl for exact details @ (602) 920-7831. Tell Carl that David "sent you" as a treat, not a trick...

AZPollsOpen6amVoteBeforeSchoolStartsOrEarlyVoteStillThisWeek!

Avoid long lines: Vote Early @ Glendale Adult Center next to Main Library until 5pm daily. Otherwise vote before school to avoid the long lines- 2006 witnessed some polling places with 3 hour waits after work! If you've got an early ballot, you can drop it off at any polling place & can head to the front of the line.

Rather than experience shocking budget cuts to ED in 2009, work for candidates like Jackie Thrasher (ASU West Area/Glendale/Phoenix) for AZ House and Angela Cotera for AZ Senate (Avondale/Goodyear) in this final phase of the election.

Check it out @ jackie@jackiethrasher.com
