And......let's hold a concert and then get all the students to go vote!
Registering The Disenfranchised
Obama's campaign will send staffers to the Ohio State University, the nation's largest campus with about 53,000 students, to encourage early voting among the sometimes hard-to-engage young. Polls show the Democrat is easily carrying the demographic against Republican John McCain.
The campaign plans to arrange concerts from John Legend, who will hold early voting rallies on Monday in Columbus, Springfield, Dayton and Cincinnati. For campuses far from election boards, Obama aides are organizing car pools to make sure students get to the polls.
On Saturday, the campaign targeted the 100,000-strong college football crowd at Ohio Stadium with a flyover advertising early voting and visits from staffers to surrounding bars.
Beyond colleges, the campaign knows it has to do well in Cuyahoga County, the state's largest and the center of Democratic power in Ohio.
The Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless believes it can round up 2,000 people from homeless shelters in the Cleveland area and get them to polling places. A donated van will shuttle voters from two shelters, including the city's largest downtown. Seventeen other shelters are providing their own transportation.
"It'll be fantastic," said Brian Davis, the coalition's executive director.
