Hi Betsy,
It’s Mark Lewis, KSG 2000. I’ve been trying for some time to get information to work/volunteer for the Obama campaign in Colorado. I live in Los Angeles but I’ll vacation in Colorado for a month and since it’s a swing state my efforts would be better served there rather than in California. I have an uncle in Denver so it won’t be a problem. Anyway, I hope you can connect me with the right person or at least a person who will respond to me. I’ve been contributing financially to the campaign but I want to do more.
This is an exciting time and I want to play my small part in making history.
