NOI – The Best Thing About Superheroes
I’ve been a supporter of NOI and have written earlier about their very cool Bootcamp. Here’s the email they sent out on the subject.
Dear Brett,
Late Sunday night, eight superheroes announced their candidacy for DC Mayor.
The brains behind these campaigns are New Organizing Institute’s own 2009 BootCampers – over 50 of the nation’s best new organizers are gathering in DC to learn how to become technologically-enabled organizers. The campaign teams of Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, The Atom, The Green Lantern, Batwoman, Superman, Cyborg, and Batgirl have built websites, designed and targeted their message plans and are now building their lists of supporters via email, online advertising and blogger outreach.
Find your favorite Superhero for DC Mayor here!
We don’t want you miss out on the fun – take a minute to visit their websites, join their email lists, and support the work of the next generation of progressive online organizers as they run an intense mayoral race. The best part of this? You get to vote – and help BootCampers reserve bragging rights for years to come.
Online voting begins at 7am EST this Friday – bookmark www.neworganizing.com/superherovote to cast your vote when the polls open.
Thank you for supporting the next generation of progressive organizers!
Judith, Heather, Zack, Anne Marie, Lola, Joy, Shayne, Nick, Kyra, Olivia, Ethan, James and Santiago
