Reply #7: Please PM me

[Lady President]

I'm one of the volunteer coordinators in Ohio and I can say with absolute confidence that your local coordinator would love to talk with you and work with your group. Please PM and let me know the closest large city to you and I'll give you the contact person.

With that said there are some organizational issues in Ohio. Most of the Kerry staff was laid off after Super Tuesday. This has resulted in the individual county Dem. parties organizing events without contacting longtime Kerry volunteers. No one who helped before the primary was contacted about the Akron rally, so you're correct in feeling there was no organized presence. We do not have access to any campaign materials right now and there is very little support from the national office. Everyone is trying their best, but things are a bit rough.

Kerry Meetups tend to be social gatherings. Our last one was right before the primary, so we had list of tasks and sign-up sheets, but this one will likely be less structured.

As I understand it, the Kerry for Ohio number is no longer being used. The HQ is back to being office space. I have no idea why the number is still be given to people. There should be offices at ODP soon.

If I can help in any manner, please let me know.
