Come on New Jersey. You're not going to let those dirty hippie New Yorkers beat us, are you? Vote for Jeff. Promoted from the diaries -- Juan
Update (Juan): They called you "swamp rats". Are you going to take that? Jeff is only behind by one vote. So vote!
If you've never heard of Netroots Nation, let me tell you about it. Formerly known as "YearlyKos," it's an annual convention begun in 2006, that brings together progressive bloggers and online activists from around the country. This year, the event takes place in Austin, TX in July, and promises to be better than ever: The third annual gathering of the Netroots community will include panels and caucuses led by national and international experts; prominent political, issue and policy-oriented speakers; a progressive film screening series and the most concentrated gathering of high-profile progressive bloggers to date. So, why am I telling you this?
Well, Democracy for America is offering scholarships to send nine lucky individuals from across the county to this year's Netroots Nation in Austin, TX, and I applied.
DFA is considering the level of grassroots support for each applicant in making its selection, so now, I'm writing to ask for support from the Blue Jersey community to help me get to Austin! You can help me with little more than a click on this link.
Thanks - your support would mean a lot to me!
