VoteNoWar on Election Day Millions of people who believe in peace are going to the polls today hoping their vote will make a difference and help stop George Bush's planned war on Iraq. Another part of the population that also opposes war on Iraq has now become alienated from the electoral process altogether and will not be going to the polls. We encourage everyone today, November 5th, Election Day, to let your friends, family members, neighbors and co-workers know they should also participate in a People's Ant-War Referendum Vote by going to VoteNoWar.org or by signing paper referendums which are downloadable from the VoteNoWar.org web site.
Let your friends, family members, neighbors and co-workers see the true face of the anti-war movement -- yours -- by encouraging people to vote in the referendum. You will give confidence to many who have quietly and personally opposed this war drive, and who may have been given the false impression by the media, the Administration and the Congress that the country supports the violent aggression of Bush's potentially nuclear "preemptive" war policy. At the time that Congress reconvenes in January, 2003, the People's Peace Congress, representing tens of millions of people in this country and around the world, will convene in Washington, D.C. as part of a continuing mobilization against the war. The results of the People's Anti-War Referendum as they are tabulated will be released to the world through an international public relations campaign and will be also brought to People's Peace Congress as it convenes in January. HERE ARE 5 WAYS YOU CAN GET INVOLVED 1) Register your vote by signing the referendum at http://www.votenowar.org/referendum.html 2) Download the VoteNoWar referendum and collect votes in your area (this is very easy, only Acrobat Reader is required). You can also download a two-sided flyer explaining both the People's Anti-War Referendum and the January 18-19 mobilization. The referendum can be downloaded at http://www.votenowar.org/referendum.pdf and the flyer at http://www.votenowar.org/flyer.pdf. If you have problems downloading the flyers, call us at 202-332-5757 and we'll send you a packet in the mail. After you download and reproduce the referendum and flyers, ask you friends, co-workers, neighbors and family to Vote No to War. Hand out flyers or set up a table in front of a supermarket, at a college or high school, at a place of worship, or at a metro station. 3) Send people you know information about the People's Anti-War Referendum. You can forward this message to personal contacts or email listserves, or go to http://161.58.14.9/cgi-bin/birdcast_clm2.pl?Tell+your+friends+about+the+Anti -War+Referendum=Click+here+to+send+e-mail and enter the names of up to five people and they will be sent general information about the campaign. 4) Add a link to VoteNoWar.org to your website -- or suggest that others do this. Go to http://www.votenowar.org/add_link.html for a graphic button and instructions (it's very simple, you just cut and paste one single line of HTML code onto your web page). 5) Make a donation to advance the anti-war movement at http://www.votenowar.org/donate.html .
