Dear Marriage Supporter,
I hope you've already contacted friends and family in North Carolina, urging them to vote FOR the Marriage Protection Amendment today.
But if you haven't, it's not too late!
Polls are open until 7:30 this evening (Eastern Time), and every vote counts as North Carolina voters have the opportunity to become the 31st state to adopt a constitutional amendment protecting marriage.
Please, do it right now. Forward this email to anyone you know who lives in North Carolina, and urge them to vote FOR the Marriage Protection Amendment!
We have just a few hours left, and our opponents have pulled out all the stops in a desperate attempt to deceive voters. Last week, numerous state law enforcement officials publicly informed voters that nothing in the Marriage Protection Amendment would jeopardize domestic violence protections. And just yesterday, the Durham County district attorney admitted that pro-SSM activists' main arguments are nothing more than baseless scare tactics.
Why are they trying to change the subject? Because even their own pollster is telling them that "North Carolinians...really firmly believe that marriage is between a man and a woman and it should stay that way."
Of course that's true, despite what you read in the newspaper...but the final outcome today will hinge not on what most voters believe about marriage—but on how many voters make the effort to get to the polls to vote FOR the Marriage Protection Amendment.
So please contact your friends and family in North Carolina right now to be sure that they have voted today!
The stakes are simply too great. We can't afford to let up until we have crossed the finish line at 7:30pm tonight. Please, take a moment right now to forward this message to friends and family in North Carolina, or use the social networking buttons below to spread the word on Facebook or Twitter.
