the objective of this phone meeting is to get volunteers for the following :
1. Support Jill in her run for President of the United States (by picking up flyers, driving her to the airport, etc.)
2. Collect signatures in other New England states (VT, CT, RI, NH)
3.
4. To obtain funds; the campaign wants to be eligible for matching funds from the federal governemnt. That means that the campaign MUST obtain $5000 from 20 states (a total of $100,000)
5. To draw attention to the primaries in each state (MA's primary is on March 6th). She needs name recognition by then!! (letters to the editor, flyers, pins, etc.) Contact the campaign if you know of an event that might provide that publicity.
6. Delegates to the National Convention;they are taking applications now. 16 people need to be in Baltimore then. They will each have 2 votes at the convention.
