Get Out The Ballot

posted October 31st

Joe officially launched the campaign’s “Get Out the Ballot” (GOTB) initiative today in Hartford to educate Connecticut voters about his unique ballot placement on Election Day. Joe’s name will be listed on the bottom of the ballot in Column 2 on the ‘Connecticut for Lieberman’ line, instead of his usual placement near the top of the ballot as the Democratic nominee.

At a press conference to kickoff the GOTB initiative, Joe unveiled the first television commercial featuring the campaign’s newly-adopted mascot: a bloodhound dog named “Charlie the Ballothound.”

You can watch it below:

Joe also unveiled a new traveling Vote-Joe-To-Go Machine. The mobile voting machine will travel regularly with Joe on the campaign trail through Election Day to give voters an opportunity to see exactly where his name will appear on the ballot.

This week is your last chance to help Get Out The Ballot.

Joe said that the unofficial slogan for the GOTB initiative will be the old adage “A Good Man is Hard to Find,” which is being used on flyers, doorknockers and other literature as part of the GOTB initiative.
