Up and Running


by: Lainey Melnick

Wed Jul 15, 2009 at 02:20 PM CDT


Finally, my domains, linktoaustin.com and laineymelnick.com have transferred to my new host and we are completely up and running. Unfortunately, I lost my top position on the google search results so I'll need to build that back up again. Please post links to my site on your blogs, sites, pages and help me get my position back.

I am starting to collect signatures for the petition to add my name to the ballot. I've had about 35 incredible volunteers offer assistance to go to their friends, family, organizations, neighbors or go to high-traffic areas to collect signatures for my campaign. The signers must be registered to vote in District 21 and commit not to vote in any other primary. If you'd like to help my campaign, print as many petitions as you need. Sign just one in front of a notary after you've completed getting all your signatures and return the petitions to me. I need 500 registered voters to sign by December.

If you'd like to help with any role on my campaign, please fill out the "Join Our Team" form at http://www.laineyforcongress.com. My next goal is to raise $700 to gain access to the Texas VAN database which will give us lists to call and door knock. If you'd like to hold a fundraising house party or meeting anywhere within district 21, please let me know and I will schedule you in.

Thanks to all of you who have been so enthusiastic and supportive of my campaign. We're off to a strong start!
