Guess where we Won't be tonight. Go ahead, guess.

You'll never guess.

Dear Chennaites for Change,
We are excited to have this chance to invite you to meet Kim Reed from the Obama campaign and hear her speak. The event will be held this Thursday, September 18th at 7:30pm. It will be at the Anokhi café** on Chamiers road near the Park Sheraton (http://www.anokhi.com/anokhi/our-shops.html). The event will run from 7:30-9:30 PM.
Come listen to Kim speak and also hear how we can help get Obama elected, even from Chennai. The 2000 election was ultimately decided by 537 votes in Florida so every effort counts! Also, if you haven't registered yet, this will be your last chance to register for an absentee ballot.
Kim is based in Washington D.C. and is the primary liaison between all overseas Obama supporters and the campaign. As Executive Director of Americans Abroad for Obama, she works closely with Democrats Abroad groups around the world, and we are incredibly lucky that she is making a campaign swing through India, to help us organize our last India voter registration efforts, and to get us ready to actively help elect Obama all the way through 4 November. There is LOTS we can do from India!
If you haven't requested your absentee ballot yet, come to the event and we'll help you, or go to www.VoteFromAbroad.org to download and print out your form. Every form must be mailed to your county office in the US in order to receive the ballot. We are advising Democrats in India to mail your registration forms BEFORE 20 SEPT to ensure that you will meet state deadlines. Do not delay, and tell every US citizen you know who resides abroad.
Presidential Debates
We are also planning to screen at least one of three presidential debates, which are listed below. Both Sridhar and I are out of town for the first two, so if anyone is interested in helping organize a screening party, please contact us! We are also looking for volunteers to help with other campaign activities.
