Sit in on a Boulder City Council meeting and discuss some of the current, local issues.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;http://ci.boulder.co.us/index.php?option=com_content&amp;amp;task=view&amp;amp;id=68&amp;amp;Itemid=130 &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2. Many people don&amp;#39;t know about smaller political groups in Boulder. Sit in on one of the Libertarian Party of Boulder County&amp;#39;s monthly meetings and tell and discuss different points of view. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;http://www.lpboulder.org/   &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;3. Sit in on a UN &amp;amp; International Affairs discussion group at the Boulder Creek Meeting Room at the Main Public Library and discuss the items discussed by local individuals like world security, arms control and disarmament. They meet on the third Thursday of each month from noon to 2. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;http://www.boulder.lib.co.us/read/discussions.html&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;4. Many teachers on campus, especially Journalism professors, have a strong bias concerning voting. Try and get the different points of view in favor of and against voting from both the students and faculty and discuss how the upcoming election affects this outlook.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;5. Many argue that there is an inherent liberal bias on campus. Is this true? To what extent? Get some statistics and tell readers just how politically diverse Boulder is or is not.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/6477653145649938633/comments/default/4568397978098370116'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/6477653145649938633/comments/default/4568397978098370116'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jour3001fay.blogspot.com/2008/10/story-ideas-for-political-beat.html?showComment=1225126380000#c4568397978098370116' title=''/><author><name>Jesse Lee</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10627640187690677230</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://jour3001fay.blogspot.com/2008/10/story-ideas-for-political-beat.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122554824905082695.post-6477653145649938633' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/posts/default/6477653145649938633' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122554824905082695.post-1450883103574259833</id><published>2008-10-26T20:01:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2008-10-26T20:01:00.000-06:00</updated><title type='text'>Great ideas!

At this point in the election, are there still many undecided voters, and if so, what particular issues are they concerned about?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;2.) How many volunteers have been recruited for each campaign and what are the demographics?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;3.) What are the implications on a "yes" or a "no" vote for Amendment 46?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;4.) With the large amount of people that have already voted early, how many people are expected on election day?&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;5.) How do canvassing and phone banking affect those who are targeted? Are there statistics that show these activities help/do not help?</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/6477653145649938633/comments/default/1450883103574259833'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/6477653145649938633/comments/default/1450883103574259833'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://jour3001fay.blogspot.com/2008/10/story-ideas-for-political-beat.html?showComment=1225072860000#c1450883103574259833' title=''/><author><name>Teesa's Blog</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/13306692559320991627</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://jour3001fay.blogspot.com/2008/10/story-ideas-for-political-beat.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122554824905082695.post-6477653145649938633' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4122554824905082695/posts/default/6477653145649938633' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
