Presidential Campaigns Target Church Members Yesterday

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS

Yesterday, according to the AP, volunteers for both the Obama and McCain campaigns attempted to bring their candidates' messages to churches as Tuesday's election approaches. In order to comply with IRS rules, the campaigns did not involve the churches, but instead asked individual supporters who are church members to distribute candidate messages. The McCain campaign distributed literature and recruited volunteers for last-minute phone banks. The Obama campaign asked members of black churches in battleground states to read a "nonpartisan letter" from Obama during church announcements.
