Lots of people are suspicious of party drives. The old story of if you register to vote you will get called for jury duty is still going round. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think a big effort should be made to get women to push their husbands, boyfriends, male coworkers and male relatives to VOTE. I know half a dozen men that do not vote where I work out of 50 men. Two tell me they have never voted and the rest do not bother.&lt;/br&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Irene</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 21 Oct 2007 20:03:38 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
