VOTING FOR JOHN EDWARDS IN 2008 SUPER TUESDAY AND OTHER PRIMARIES

If John Edwards' name is on your state ballot

AND you are planning on voting for Edwards

this Super Tuesday (or beyond)

THERE ARE ADVANTAGES AND RISKS INVOLVED!


IMPORTANT!!!

In ANY congressional district EDWARDS MUST GAIN 15% of the vote

for his delegates to be seated

AT THE CONVENTION.



ADVANTAGES if he DOES WIN 15% IN YOUR CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT:

  • Those delegates SEATED AT THE CONVENTION will be FREE to vote for either candidate-- OBAMA OR CLINTON-- especially if Edwards does not endorse either by that time.
  • You will get to feel like you have struck a blow against Empire, the Old Guard and everything you ever hated about Corporate America! HOO-AH!

DISADVANTAGES if he DOES NOT WIN 15% IN YOUR CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT:

  • Your vote essentially counts as a vote for the frontrunner IN YOUR CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT. In other words:

  1. If Hillary is ahead in your area, but you would prefer Obama to “win” the primary, your vote for Edwards will act as a vote for Hillary
  2. Edwards delegates will not be seated at the Democratic convention
  3. OR VICE VERSA!
So, as usual, feeling good comes with some risks!
Use mental protection and Vote wisely!


To ensure delegates will be seated in your state and district

call your local Edwards office or:

THE NATIONAL EDWARDS NUMBER

(919) 636 – 3131


IF YOU'VE ALREADY "EARLY VOTED"
YOU MAY STILL CHANGE YOUR VOTE!!!!

  • GO TO YOUR LOCAL POLLING LOCATION ON VOTING DAY

  • CAST A PROVISIONAL BALLOT

YOUR BALLOT CAST CLOSEST TO THE ACTUAL VOTING DATE IS THE ONE USED IN THE FINAL COUNT.

PROVISIONALS ARE COUNTED WHEN THE OUTCOME OF THE ELECTION (IN OTHER WORDS, THE MARGIN) IS LESS THAN THE NUMBER OF PROVISIONAL BALLOTS.

This information has been vetted by Arizona for Edwards campaign associate Catherine Miller.
