Swing Hawaii for Kerry!

[greg]

Hey, you guys. Long time no see. Greg Pak here, Asian American director of "Robot Stories." I'm posting today in another capacity altogether -- as an Asian American voter, and I'd like to ask for your help.

As you may have heard, Hawaii has become a swing state in the presidential election -- the polls show a dead heat between Bush and Kerry. This means that since the national race is so darn tight, it could conceivably all come down to who wins Hawaii. Which presents a huge opportunity for Asian Americans to make a critical difference in this election.

Many of us have friends and family in Hawaii. Please, please, please, call and email your contacts on the islands TODAY and encourage them to vote for John Kerry. Their votes really, really count.

Please visit http://www.asianamericanvoter.com for more information on how to get involved and other handy resources, including a sample letter you can send to friends and family. The site also has brief essays written by pro-Kerry, Hawaii-related Asian Americans, which you can feel free to cite in any letters to undecided voters.

Oh, yeah, and don't forget to vote yourself, even if you don't live in Hawaii!

Many, many thanks and all the best!
