If allowed, ask the top leadership of an organization with
which you are involved to write a letter or send e-mails encouraging
your members to support Sam Johnson. Ask them to vote
for Sam on March 4. Or, put an article in your monthly
newsletter. You can borrow information
from our media resources page. |

THE MEDIA
Write a letter to the editor to The Dallas
Morning News, The Plano Star Courier, McKinney Courier-Gazette,
Frisco Enterprise, Rowlett Lakeshore Times, The Garland News,
other Third Congressional District newspapers along with neighborhood
newspapers. Editors will often use the number of letters received
on an item to gauge the public's interest in it. The more
