Dear MoveOn member near Charlottesville,

Our good friend and colleague, Lisa Witter, is a finalist in Showtime's new reality TV show called "American Candidate." She needs your help today, Monday June 21st, in Charlottesville to stay in the race against a group of horribly right-wing candidates.

Details are in Lisa's message below.

Lisa is a terrific spokesperson for the issues we care about -- on everything from Iraq to the economy. Please help her out today.

It's going to really be hard to get people out on a workday for this vote, that's taking place only in Charlottesville, so every vote you get out will make a big difference.

Thanks,

- Wes Boyd

URGENT AND TIME SENSITIVE!

Dear Friend,

Virginians, I need your help!!!

I am one of the remaining candidates on American Candidate, the new reality show on Showtime about politics. I am one of only two Democrats left on the show (we're up against some very conservative candidates).

IF I DO NOT GET OUT THE VOTE I WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM THE SHOW!

Polls are open until 8 p.m. on Sunday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday June 21st. There are three polling locations in Charlottesville, Va. We need supporters to physically show up at the polling place.

Anyone with a valid driver's license from any state may vote, including people that are not 18 or who are not registered to vote in Virginia. You must bring your drivers license.

There are three polling locations in Charlottesville, Va.

* Central Place in the Downtown Mall

We need volunteers, ideas and people to turn out!
