Please pledge to call voters for Prop 19 - it’s the only way we can pass Prop 19. 1

Whoa - this is amazing. More than 1,000 people have pledged to call on our Prop 19 day of action on Saturday, and we've already called more than 12,000 California voters.
Some bad news, though: two new polls actually show Prop 19 LOSING by slight margins among likely voters. If we want Prop 19 to pass, it’s up to us to bring out new, young voters who aren’t counted in these polls.
Please pledge to call voters for Prop 19 - it’s the only way we can pass Prop 19.
If you can’t call, please donate $19 to our campaign for Prop 19 instead.
- Michael

UPDATE:
Hey -
The Prop 19 campaign put out a crazy new poll late on Friday - it shows that up to 73% of young voters support Prop 19! Turning out young voters is the best, if not the only, way to pass Prop 19.
We're organizing a Prop 19 Day of Action for Saturday. Our goal: call thousands of young voters and identify supporters for Prop 19.
----
This Saturday is the perfect day to reach young voters in California - it's the day of Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's big rally in DC. More than any other day, it's when young people will be fired up and paying attention.
Calling young people is a sure-fire way to turn out voters most likely to support Prop 19 and help legalize marijuana. Plus, it's super easy and fun to call right from your home.
We've already made more than 12,000 calls to young voters - that's amazing! But with just 8 days left before the election, we need to at least double that number.
One week from tomorrow, California will vote on Prop 19. This is it.
Thanks for all you do.
Best,
Michael Whitney JustSayNow.com

10/28/2010: Too many people fell for the propaganda, it is a shame, such gullible people. Prop 19 will not pass now 
You still need to Vote YES, and you BETTER, because even if it is close enough, it can still help to make changes in the future.
added 10/19/2010 (If I lived in California, I'd vote YES on Prop 19, I am still promoting it, I hope it passes. I believe that a lot of people, if asked, will say "i will vote no" or "i am not sure" because of the issue, however, I also believe that if the polls say it is one way, people are more likely to be herded like sheep and follow the popular vote if they don't know what to vote for. I hope it passes though, it would be awesome to see what happens.)

The whole point is to actively participate.
If you don't participate, then it wont pass.
If you do participate, then it will pass.
Participate.
Or don't.
It's up to you.
I'm going to call the voters, and I'm not going to read line for line, I'm going to speak honestly, about my own experiences, and hopefully they will change their mind and vote yes instead.
I am also going to call as many voters as I can this Saturday.
Go out there and be active, don't just sit and complain about other peoples choices on The Shroomery, especially when given the chance to actually make a difference.

So true. Also don't forget that all the polls are still showing that its close. Voter initiatives are difficult to poll accurately. This is going to come down to who shows up to vote.
Everyone needs to do whatever they can to help this pass!

wow if we could get a good population of the shroomery/growery members to make these calls, that would be killer for the legalization movement

What does NSTP stand for? I have no idea what you are talking about, or what it has to do with prop 19...

Nope, that's why I asked. I've never heard it called by that acronym, and could not find anything about it via a google search..
Is the tea party more anti-prop 19 in general than candidates in other parties?

Not with an attitude like that.
We can't have a defeatist attitude. Polls mean nothing, they could be spreading this information illigitimately just to incite that kind of attitude for all we know. Also, do you really thing polls on a topic this shady to talk about personally are 100% accurate?

Way to explain your position. I like to hear from different perspectives, but all I hear from you are incoherent rants and name-calling. I guess I'll just stick to voting libertarian tomorrow, since I know for sure they are pro-legalization...
