From Dean Trantalis for Fort Lauderdale Mayor Campaign

-OUR CITY WANTS YOUR SUPPORT ...
AND SO DOES DEAN!
To Everyone who has shown their support for this campaign, The time is now!!!
Until now, we've been raising funds for this final push. We are only a little over 6 weeks out from the election and we are honored and humbled to have the outpouring of support we have received so far. Now it's time for everyone supporting this campaign to let the rest of Fort Lauderdale know why they should vote for Dean. On Wednesday, January 7th, 2009, we'll be holding a rally at ArtServ at 6pm. We need each and every one of you to commit to attending the rally and bringing at least 1 friend. It's time to step up and make our united voices heard. If you have volunteered previously, we ask you to volunteer again. And please attend. If you have given money or helped us raise funds, we ask that you give your time and help us raise volunteers and attend. If you have wanted to help but haven't been able, we ask that you take the time to attend. This a call for "ALL HANDS ON DECK". Tell everyone you know and send this to as many people as possible. We want everyone. Thank you for your dedication. Thank you for your time. Thank you for your support. Thank you.
