We have to win.

As a small note at the top of the page alludes to, Brooklyn for Barack is in the process of organizing a major voter registration drive, the details of which will be rolled out in the coming days. But now that we’ve had a few days to savor Obama’s victory, I wanted to say a sentence or two about the importance of voter registration in Brooklyn. New York will be a safe Democratic state in the general election in November, but Obama will need a strong coalition of engaged supporters to govern effectively. Now is the time to bring people into the system and build that coalition.

RSVP now for the rally next Thursday.

It doesn’t seem possible that a month and a half has already passed since the campaign’s first nation-wide initiative, the house parties on March 31st. And—now the time has come to do it again. On June 9th we and neighborhood groups and supporters across the borough and the city are joining together to Walk for Change. You’ll find a number of featured canvassing actions on our events page, please take a moment now to sign up to help bring change to Brooklyn, the nation, and the world.
