Exciting News!
by Heidi Workman
We have exciting news! Our Get-Out-The-Vote efforts are working. The TelePatriot mission in Ohio has proven to be a powerful way to influence candidates running for office. Statewide office holders and challengers are now asking to be added to our list of supporters.
Thanks to you and other COS supporters across the country, over 6,000 calls have been made to Ohio voters in just a couple weeks! This effort must continue as we near the August 2 Primary when Ohio House and Senate candidates make their big campaign push.
With that, we are taking this opportunity to request endorsements from the candidates who have stated their support of the Convention of States Project. In order to reach them directly, we need your help.
If you plan to attend ANY candidate events in the coming months, please ask the candidate for their permission to record a public endorsement that we intend to use in our campaign promotions leading up to the General Election.
This effort includes ALL candidate races: Governor, U.S. Senate, Ohio House & Senate, Central Committee chairs, etc. We especially want to focus on the House and Senate incumbents and challengers as we lead up to the Primary on August 2. In order to be added to our TelePatriot campaign, candidates must complete our survey that was sent to them weeks ago.
Consider sending your representative an email encouraging them to support COS. Please notify them that we are actively making calls to tens of thousands of Ohio voters spotlighting candidates who support a Convention of States.
As an added bonus, we will promote candidate endorsements with a press release to Ohio newspapers leading up to the August 2 Primary. Within our organization, we will promote their support to over 100,000 Ohio COS supporters, post it to our social media sites (Facebook & Gab), and may promote on the national level as well. That’s big publicity for our candidate supporters that we expect they will appreciate.
If you are successful in securing an endorsement before August 2, please send the video or written statement to me at lady.liberty@cosaction.com. This effort is critical to push our resolutions across the finish line in this General Assembly and become one of the next passed states in 2022.
Thank you for your incredible efforts across Ohio. Because of you and our out-of-state colleagues, we’re gaining momentum! This is our moment to see it through.
Yours in the fight,
Heidi Workman
