The Cities (WQPT) – Eric Reyes – March 15,2012

Do you have any campaign literature you can share with us? Mailers, postcards, door hangers, palm cards, flyers, stickers, buttons … we would love to add any and all of these in order to compile as comprehensive an archive as we can.

Any race, any party, from anywhere in Illinois. Whatever you have to share, we’d be happy to have it.

If scans are available, that’s all we really need, but if it’s easier to just put something in an envelope and mail it to us, that’s fine too. So, whether you’re a campaign looking for one more way to get your message out or you’re just a voter whose mailbox is overflowing with campaign lit you’re willing to send our way, if you’ve got something to share, please write us at n0madic@comcast.net and we’ll work out the details.
