Geraldine Ferraro and Susan Molinari, National Co-Chairs of WE tv's WE VOTE '08 Campaign, Encourage Women to Vote

NEW YORK, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Susan Molinari, former Member of the U.S. House of Representatives, and Geraldine Ferraro, first female Vice-Presidential candidate representing a major American political party, are the National Co-Chairs of WE tv's WE VOTE '08 (www.wevote08.com) Campaign which is empowering women across America to register to vote. In the last election over 35 million women did not vote, and with such hot topics on the table such as the economic recession, the war in Iraq, health care, a woman's right to choose, why should women let someone else speak for them? The women's vote is more important than ever! The millions of women must be ready to cast their ballot on November 4th.

INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITIES

Susan and Geraldine are available for select media interviews to discuss this election and the initiatives of WE VOTE '08. To schedule an interview, please contact Alexandra Malizia at Rogers & Cowan at 212.445.8485.
