Before his Election Night speech, Barack sent out this message to suppporters:

I'm about to head to Grant Park to talk to everyone gathered there, but I wanted to write to you first.

We just made history.

And I don't want you to forget how we did it.

You made history every single day during this campaign -- every day you knocked on doors, made a donation, or talked to your family, friends, and neighbors about why you believe it's time for change.

I want to thank all of you who gave your time, talent, and passion to this campaign. We have a lot of work to do to get our country back on track, and I'll be in touch soon about what comes next.

But I want to be very clear about one thing...

All of this happened because of you.

Thank you,

Barack

We have 5 days left to make sure as many people as possible cast their votes for change.

But you'd be surprised how many of your friends and family don't know where to vote in your state, a crucial battleground state.

Take a minute to look up your polling place on our voting website, VoteForChange.com, then forward this email to your friends, family, and neighbors so they can look up theirs, too.

On VoteForChange.com you can find out where to vote and get crucial voting information.

This race is too close for you -- or anyone you know -- not to vote.

And the issues we're facing are too important to keep anyone's voice out of the political process just because they didn't know where to vote.

Can you forward this email to at least five friends, family members, or coworkers and tell them to look up their polling location?

Supporters like you can transform this nation, and I'm counting on your help to make sure every Obama supporter in your state knows where they can cast their vote for change on Election Day.

Thank you for your help,
Jon

Barack just sent the following email:

The last day to register to vote in Arizona is Monday, October 6th.

Are you registered? Are your friends and family?

If you only forward one email to your friends, family, and neighbors today -- make it this one.

Each and every vote in Arizona is absolutely crucial to victory on Election Day.

Visit VoteForChange.com, our one-stop voter registration website, and register before the Arizona deadline.

Supporters like you have built the biggest grassroots movement in the history of American politics.

But in just eight days, the time for bringing new voices into the political process will be over.

You need to be certain that you, your friends, and your family are registered by the deadline -- it's a small step that will have a huge impact on our Election Day results.

This election is too important to leave anything to chance. Make sure your voice is heard.

Thanks,

Barack

It's time to put an end to the say-anything-to-win politics of the past. Together we can face the challenges of the future with a new kind of politics and a new kind of leadership.

Friend --

I have some important news that I want to make official.

I've chosen Joe Biden to be my running mate.

Joe and I will appear for the first time as running mates this afternoon in Springfield, Illinois -- the same place this campaign began more than 19 months ago.

I'm excited about hitting the campaign trail with Joe, but the two of us can't do this alone. We need your help to keep building this movement for change.

Please let Joe know that you're glad he's part of our team. Share your personal welcome note and we'll make sure he gets it:

Thanks for your support,

Barack

Friends --

My name is Temo Figueroa, and I'm the Latino Vote Director for the Obama campaign.

Hispanic voters are going to make history in this election.

I just recorded a short video about our plans to reach this important group, including an unprecedented initiative by the Democratic National Committee and the Obama campaign to bring as many Hispanic voters into the process as possible.

Watch this brief video about the Latino Vote and get involved today:

Hispanic voters have disproportionately felt the brunt of the failed Bush-McCain policies -- from a decline in median income for Hispanic households to a rise in unemployment. They are demanding change.

And they will play a crucial role in bringing the change we desperately need. Latinos comprise a large portion of the electorate in several key battleground states.

That's why this initiative -- which includes voter registration, Election Day turnout, trainings, online organizing, and Spanish-language advertising -- is so important.

And it would not be possible without the hard work and generosity of supporters like you.

Check out the video and share it with your friends and family.

Thank you so much for your continued support,

Temo
