Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What makes the Abigail Project different from what other organizations are doing?

1.       Our voter information will not just be provided on the state and federal level but on the local level as well

2.       Our voter guides will not include party affiliation

3.       We are not only providing the information but also teaming up with Liberty organizations all over the country to form a network which will distribute the information to the voters at the polls on Elections Day.

4.       We have a huge network of partnering organizations that we continue to add to.  We don’t want reinvent the wheel.  We want to work with other organizations to magnify our efforts together.  We don’t care who gets the credit.  We just care that the job gets done.  That is why we feel it is important to work together.  When you don’t care who gets the credit it is phenomenal what you can accomplish. 

Question: What about candidates who lie about their answers?

1.       We will use voting records to qualify the candidates answers and will make a clear notation of the discrepancies on the voter guides

2.       We will make sure the candidates know we are qualifying their votes with their record when we send their surveys.

Question: What about when the candidates don’t turn in the surveys? 

1.       This is where We the People come in.  When candidates don’t return their surveys we will let the people in their districts know so you can call and ask them why they haven’t returned it. 

2.       We will also let the candidates know when we send their surveys that if they don’t return the survey we will mark on the voter guide that they refused to answer our questions.  That should send a very clear message to voters.  If they don’t want us to know who they are we don’t want them representing us.

Question: What happens when the Election is over? 

1.       The project will continue to grow to include local information connected through our national network to include vital information in each community such as where and when city councils and school boards meet and links to their websites. 

2.       We will also continue to expand the voter information from community to community in election cycles as well as continue to add to our volunteer force and our list of strategic partners

3.       Most importantly, we will hold our elected leaders feet to the fire once they are elected.  We are currently working with several of our partnering organizations to create a communication system that will allow us to keep an eye on our elected leaders and report on their service.

Question: What can I do to help? 

1.       Let us know the candidates you are aware of who are running in the 2010 election including school boards, county commissioners, city councils, state reps, etc.  We want to know who all the candidates are not just the party candidates.  And we will need contact information for them or someone in their campaign—both phone and email, so we can send them the surveys  and confirm they received them.

2.       We need to know what liberty organizations are in your state/community such as Tea Parties, Liberty Groups, 9-12, Walnuts, etc.  We need the name of the organization, a website if they have one, contact person and contact info (phone and email). 

3.       We would like to add to our network and you can help.  There are several state and national organizations that we would like to connect with.  We have many but we know there are more.  Please do not assume we know about the organization.  We would rather received 100 alerts about an organization than miss them altogether.  If you think they are an organization we should know about please let us know.  Again, we need  the name of organization, web address, contact person(s) and email/phone.

4.       Spread the word!  We cannot stress this enough.  We have a very short time to build our army of volunteers and promote awareness of the project.  The mainstream media doesn’t want anyone to know we are here and we are doing because they know informed voters threaten their power and the establishment.  They have proven it with their lack of coverage of the Tea Parties.  They are all hoping we will just go away.  They will not be promoting the Abigail Adams Project so we need to.  Please tell everyone you know.  You can share the link to the Abigail Adams Project so they can read for themselves or pass on this email but we must spread the word.  Here is the link http://www.homemakersforamerica.com/Abigail-Adams.html
