Blog #11: Civic Engagement

*** This is an optional blog post for extra credit *** Due by Friday, Dec. 4 at 5pm

 I hope this will be a fun one. Write a blog post that encourages citizens to DO something for your candidate (vote, work a phone bank, volunteer, give money, etc.) Essentially you are writing an ad for your candidate and campaign. Tell people why they should do the thing you want them to do for this particular candidate/campaign. I would include persuasive messages from your candidate him/herself and enthusiasm. Humor is welcome, if that's the route you want to take. Basically, what is it about your particular candidate that people will care about and want to rally behind? Then use those things to get volunteers/voters/donors/etc.

Your blog posts should be approx. 500 words. They should include links, images, multimedia, etc. when appropriate (which is probably always -- what better way to keep your audience interested?) More information is provided in an assignment sheet on Blackboard.
