my apologies in advance for the spam...
with all of the talk about developing alternatives to corporate funded dems i thought the people on this list would be willing to throw a few bucks towards matt gonzalez's grassroots campaign to be mayor of san francisco. the polls have the two running neck and neck and we need all the help we can get to get matt's progressive vision out to SF voters and get supporters to the polls. is matt perfect? no. but he is clearly the best person to be mayor of this fair city and an important national example of progressive local leadership.
thanks for your support!

Grassroots Campaign Donations Needed Give today at http://www.mattgonzalez.com/donate
We have only one week to go before election day, and the clock is ticking! The final weeks of the campaign have been exciting, with Matt pulling into the lead according to several reputable polls and the momentum building by the day. “Matt for Mayor” signs fill windows across the city and the four campaign headquarters (in the Mission, Haight, Bayview and Chinatown) are swarming with activity and excitement.
What can you do to help add to this growing momentum?
Of course, we appreciate the hard work you all have been doing for the campaign, and we urge you to keep it up. We also encourage you to make a financial contribution to the campaign if you have not already done so. If you have not given the maximum donation of $250 and are in the position to do so, now is the time.
Matt's entirely grassroots effort has raised over $250,000 in the past month alone, but in order to keep the campaign going full speed ahead, and keep up with Gavin's millions, we need to keep the donations rolling in. Matt does not accept corporate contributions or funds from downtown business interests, so we need everyone to make a contribution in whatever amount you can afford.
Please take a moment to go to our website at http://www.mattgonzalez.com/donate and make an online contribution. Or, if you prefer, you can mail a check to:
Matt Gonzalez for Mayor 168 Seville St. SF, CA 94112
Please make checks payable to "Matt Gonzalez for Mayor". We will need your occupation and employer if you donate more than $100 to the campaign.
You can also hand deliver your contribution directly to the campaign office of your choice. We have offices at 1717 Mission (at 13th St.), 568 Haight (at Pierce), 4919 3rd street in Bayview, and 909 Grant Ave. in Chinatown.
Thank you for your support! This is a grassroots effort and it is only through the help of folks like you that we will win!
