Special Elections

If you are a Nassau County (NY) blogger or reader or know of anybody who lives there, make sure you get out the vote by 9 pm tonight.

Keep up with what's happening online and off at The Daily Gotham. We have information on phone banking. If you want to drop by their campaign office, give them a call at 516-393-0700.

Just to underscore the importance of this race, we have word that this special election has broken all records in New York, costing a whopping $5,000,000.

It has also prompted The Brennan Center for Justice, Common Cause/NY, DEMOS, League of Women Voters/NYS, NYPIRG to create a task force, hotline and blog to monitor voter suppression in the county. Yes, because even though this is a majority white county, the 20% of minority voters in the district could decide the election.

So hop over to The Daily Gotham to keep up on all what's happening.

Where are we going to be offline?

How about online?
Check out our new chatrooms at the culturekitchen CAFE. I am going to open them at 7pm.

All you have to do to register is to use your ID at either culturekitchen or The Daily Gotham or any other Drupal site, the name of the site and your password. So you would sign-in like this :

username : your_user_name@culturekitchen.com
password : your_password_at_culturekitchen.com

And so on for all the other sites.

For those who find this too cumbersome, just hop over to The Daily Gotham. Michael and I will be liveblogging over there as well.

Any questions?
