Illinois DFA call with Sen. Durbin & Rep. Schakowsky

Agenda:

We are just days away from an historic election. And what happens in Illinois could make all the difference. We’ve lined up three of the best to share the latest news from the campaign trail and take your questions: Senator Richard Durbin, Representative Jan Schakowsky and Democratic nominee for the 6th Congressional District Tammy Duckworth.

In the next two weeks the Republicans are going to throw everything – including the kitchen sink – at our candidates. But we’ve never been more prepared for their negative campaigning. And we’ve never been more ready to lead America in a new, more hopeful direction.

That we’re in a position to recapture the United States House of Representatives and Senate is in no small part because of Illinois activists like you. Your passion, your time, your money have put Democrats in a position to win. But the last two weeks are absolutely critical. Senator Durbin and Congresswoman Schakowsky will tell us how to be strategic and effective in the final days.

One of the most exciting opportunities we have in Illinois is the opportunity to claim Republican Henry Hyde’s seat for Democrat Tammy Duckworth. She’s cut a new on-line announcement with Senator Barack Obama. We’ll be talking about this ad and more on Wednesday. Check it out the new ad here:
