We're getting close to the end and we're losing 48/52.
Phone your friends/siblings/co-workers etc., whoever can give us support.
It's a small battle in a huge conflict, a win would be awesome.

I can't believe you just said that! I just hung up my cell phone from calling 8 other people and they've promised to vote.

Cheers!
