George P. Bush Early Vote Phone Call

Hello, this is George P. Bush and I have a simple, but critical request. I am asking you to vote early. Early voting is new to Florida, but that doesn't make it any less important. The Democrats are counting on you to stay home. They want to sneak into Election Day with an advantage we can't overcome. So make no mistake, it could come down to your vote. Please don't want until the last second, vote between now and Monday. Vote early and vote Republican. This is George P. Bush. Early voting is easy and more important than ever, so call 866-355-VOTE, toll free or log on to www.rpof.org. We're banking on your vote and we're asking you to make it count today. Many thanks.
