To: Kiera FeldmanDear Friend,
You did it! You made it happen!
All across America, millions of pro-family conservatives flocked to the polls and took part in the most historic US election since the Great Depression.
They came out in support of candidates who responded to their calls for leadership that will stand against an intrusive and big spending government, and for traditional values.
The result demonstrates the true power of America’s largest voting bloc.
In the months leading up to the election, the Christian Coalition leveraged the power of the Internet and social media to educate voters with a combination of online advertising in targeted states and viral online tools that empowered conservative activists.
Within recent months we launched new online tools such as:
- A “Voter Guides” tab for Facebook pages
- A “Donate Your Status” application to promote voter guides on Facebook and Twitter
- A Coalition toolbar for web browsers
- A voter guide widget that enabled supporters to crowd-source voter guide distribution
In the end, our job was to provide the tools. You provided the manpower.
As a result, we connected with hundreds of thousands of additional conservatives, identified tens of thousands of new activists and our voter guides were seen by millions of voters all across the country.
Again, YOU made it happen.
Now we must begin the work of holding elected officials accountable to their promises and reminding them that they were elected with the support of conservatives who take their values and the Constitution seriously.
Thank you so much for the sacrifices you make for our shared values.
Sincerely,
Roberta Combs, President & CEO
Christian Coalition of America
