Phone Banking for Endorsed Candidates is Underway

As you know, on October 13, the CEA Fund for Children and Public Education endorsed candidates in three school board races and two supervisor races.  In addition to our endorsement, the candidates need our field support as well.  A number of CEA members have already given several hours of their personal time to support the candidates through neighborhood walks, and several more members will be coming into the office this week after the close of business to work phone banks to help get Friends of Education elected locally.

But we need more help!  If you live in the district of one of our endorsed candidates and would be willing to place a support sign in your yard, please let us know which sign(s) you need.  And no matter which district you live in, if you are willing to work at one or more of the voting precincts before or after school hours on Election Day, to help inform undecided voters about our endorsed candidates, please contact us and we will get you the lists of available times and locations.  There are a total of 40 polling precincts (31 schools, 9 churches, 1 library and 1 fire department) that need coverage: most of them are schools where you may already work.  Won't you consider sticking around to help get our candidates the few extra votes that may make the difference in whether schools and the people who learn and work in them are a top priority for the next 4 years?  To see if your school is conveniently on the list, click here: http://www.chesterfield.gov/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=16661

In all cases, please talk to YOUR neighbors, friends, and family, about YOUR CEA-endorsed candidates and what their election means for YOU and YOUR students.  Get Out the Vote!

CEA-Endorsed Candidates who need your help in the neighborhoods and at the polls:
For School Board from Matoaca: Tom Doland;
For School Board from Dale: David Wyman;
For School Board from Bermuda: Stella Edwards;
For Supervisor from Bermuda: Mark Fausz.
