Dear Editor:

We know Colorado is a battleground state in this presidential race. What many don’t know is that Pitkin County may be Ground Zero for the Colorado race. Our Pitkin votes could indeed be the crucial votes that put Barack Obama over the top in Colorado. We need your help now!

Come to our Obama house party — this Friday, Oct. 10, at The O’Leary’s at 5:30 p.m. at 1500 Silver King Dr. We will be unveiling the plan for our final get out the vote push. We need many volunteers. Pizza, salad, desserts and beverages will be served. Please RSVP to Blancainaspen@aol.com or 920-4969 or to kathryn.e.everett@gmail.com or (914) 393-8663.

This year your help can truly make the difference. Please help Barack win Pitkin in a big way so that he can win Colorado and become the NEXT president of the United States.

Kathryn Everett, Obama field director

Blanca O’Leary, Obama national delegate
