Wow. Together, we've cast over 3 million votes in the Obama in 30 Seconds ad contest since Monday! We've blown away the number of votes cast in our 2004 Bush in 30 Seconds contest—a testament to the energy and enthusiasm for Senator Obama's message.
The media have focused a lot on negativity and distractions recently. But we can remind folks about all the positive energy surrounding Obama's campaign by making sure our friends and family see these ads. Plus, rating the ads is fun!
Voting's open through Sunday night—can you forward this link and encourage folks to watch and rank the ads?

Let's see if we can reach 4 million votes.
You can pass along the link through email, Facebook, MySpace, or on a blog. If folks you know aren't political, that's fine—we're choosing an ad to put on national TV. The more people weigh in from all sorts of backgrounds, the more effective our final ad will be.
Thanks for spreading the word!
