[RFP]

THERE IS HOPE: We've raised $480 so far since Jay was here last Friday. These funds are on their way to the "Friends of Jay Wolfe" committee explicitly earmarked for newspaper ads in the eastern panhandle.

• A full page ad in the Martinsburg Journal's (~25,000 circulation) election insert is $275 (got that covered - "Jay vs. Jay" copy).
• A half page ad in the Sunday issue is $555 (but goes up at end of month just before the election).
• Full page ad is $855 until rates hike in November.

We're looking to raise $2100 to cover the election insert, a half page Sunday ad on Oct 27, and a full page ad on Nov 3. This works out to $700 per county in the tri-county panhandle reached by this paper's circulation. If any Freepers can help us with this goal, that would be great! Similar funding is required for issue ads throughout the state.

PS: Those hunting licence lists meantioned by EV cost $$$money$$$ to purchase and mail.

Thank you! A check will be on the way tomorrow.

So let me get this straight. I have very limited resources... and you think I should use those limited resources making contributions to Jay Wolfe... instead of to Norm Coleman, who has a legitimate shot at knocking out Wellstone?

How much are billboard ads? I think they'd be more effective if you could think of something to put on that's really attention getting.
