opinion on this, I do have to ask if you think it is fair to use a neighborhood list to encourage people to vote one way or another? cross the line. The neighborhood is comprised of a number of people, probably with diverging opinions. I feel this list should be reserved to topics that affect it, (of course elections affect it too!), not to partisan calls.

[mailto: horton Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2008 11:38 AM To: North Loop; NA Northfield Subject: [nndl] Please Vote for Morrison TODAY or SATURDAY be a strong advocate for neighborhoods on Council. Super 2s in our neighborhood. Airport and 55th (open until 7pm) founded, FixAustin.org, which is an animal-welfare advocacy organization. Whether animal welfare is important to you or not, I urge you to please get out and vote in the important city-council runoff election. Early voting ends June 10th, and election day is this Saturday, June 14th. Best, Ryan message ---------- From: FixAustin.Org < Date: Mon, Jun 9, 2008 at 11:10 AM Subject: Morrison v. Galindo Runoff Election runoff election between Laura Morrison and Cid Galindo. The last day to vote early is tomorrow, June 10, 2008. After that, the only day to vote for the city-council runoff is this Saturday, June 14, 2008. Although FixAustin.org does not endorse candidates, we can tell you what we've learned about the two candidates' views on Austin animal-welfare policy. After reviewing the candidates' answers to a variety of animal-welfare questions, we gave Laura Morrison our highest Five-Star Rating. Morrison fought the City's ill-conceived plan to relocate Austin's animal shelter from the shores of Town Lake to the edge of town, and intelligently engaged all stakeholders - including homeowners in East Austin - before reaching her own conclusions. She favors rebuilding Austin's pound on Town Lake, implementing programs that have ended shelter killing in other cities, and holding shelter management accountable for poor performance. On the other hand, we gave Cid Galindo our lowest One-Star Rating. Out of all the candidates running for every council seat, Galindo is the only candidate who not only favors removing the animal shelter from downtown Austin, but also eliminating the City Council's commitment to keep an adoption center open on Town Lake. In short, Galindo believes that Austin's lost and homeless pets should have no opportunity to be adopted from a facility in the heart of Austin. Please remember to vote early by June 10th, or on election day, June 14th. Warmest regards, The FixAustin.org Management Team
