Following is news from the Obama for America team in California.  This was a big day for Barack, coming on the heels of a great debate last night.  Tomorrow the final GOTV push fires up.  For those of you who are interested, the Obama Riverside Field Office is holding a rally in the morning, followed by canvassing all day. 

Great news!  The Obama campaign has received some big endorsements in California that we need YOU to spread the word about...

We're really adding some organizational strength in the final critical days of the campaign.  The California chapter of the Service Employees International Union (650,000 members) has endorsed Barack Obama today.  If you know of friends or family that are part of the union, please thank them and ask them to actively get out the vote with you this weekend.
