What Are You Doing AFTER the Debate?

From the DNC: Tonight, John Edwards and Dick Cheney will meet for the only vice presidential debate of the campaign. Once again, we need you to take action the moment they leave the stage. There are four critical things you can do to help beat the Republican spin machine.

  • Forward this email to family, coworkers, and friends.
  • Vote in online polls.
  • Write a letter to the editor.
  • Call radio and television stations.

Your 10 minutes of activism following the debate can make the difference. It is important that we double our efforts from the last debate, because the Republicans are now copying our strategy.

Vote in Online Polls: National and local news organizations will be conducting online polls during and after the debate asking for readers' opinions. Look for online polls at these news websites, and make sure to vote in every one of them:

CNN: https://www.cnn.com/
MSNBC: https://www.msnbc.msn.com/
Wall Street Journal: https://www.wsj.com/
LA Times: https://www.latimes.com/
Minneapolis-St. Paul Star-Tribune: https://www.startribune.com/
Orlando Sentinel: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/
Philadelphia Inquirer: https://www.philly.com/
South Florida Sun-Sentinel: https://www.sun-sentinel.com/

Make sure swing voters know why you support John Kerry by sharing your thoughts on message boards in target states. Visit our 2004 Debate Center after the debate for a list of message boards where you can fight the Republican spin. If you visit chat rooms on AOL, MSN, Yahoo, or other websites, be sure to let people know what you thought of the debate.

And be sure to check the websites of your local newspapers and TV stations for online polls. It is crucial that you do this in the minutes immediately following the debate. Click through to the continuation page for a list of local media sites. (Photo, Kerry-Edwards 2004, Inc. from Dave Scull)
