Dear Women's Voting Circle Members,

Oh, you worked so hard -- and you did it!!!! As we at headquarters checked in with various Voting Circle Leaders, we discovered that the circles turned out to be magical. Not only did you all sign up women (and many men) as new voters across the state; we created a model based on relationships among friends, family, and new acquaintances.

It's been a thrill to join with you all. Our goal was 100 circles with 1200 members bringing in 10,000 new voters. We made it! Actually, 105!!! And well over 1200 members!!!. Given your reports, we're convinced we far exceeded our goal of getting 10,000 "least likely to vote" women to choose President-Elect Obama.

Many of you have asked how this infrastructure can continue. We have a really cool idea, and we'll be in touch with you soon. Remember, we are part of a larger social movement, and we must carry on!

Again, congratulations to you!

Katherine Archuleta, Swanee Hunt, Juanita Chacon, Rebecca Wilkins, Sheryl Glaser, and
