YouTube Video Contest

Vote No on the Rail Charter Amendment YouTube Video Contest

Cincinnati is finally moving forward. Now a group of the same old naysayers has proposed a charter amendment to prevent our city from developing any and all forms passenger rail.

At a time when other cities are doing everything possible to move their community forward and create jobs, Cincinnati will be left behind (again) if this amendment passes.

We want to do everything we can to tell voters about this charter amendment that jeopardizes our future and we need your help.

We challenge you, your friends, your family, and your colleagues to post a video on YouTube describing why Cincinnati should vote NO on the charter amendment and send us the link at cincinnatiansforprogress@gmail.com

We will share our favorite videos with Cincinnati’s online community, local news media and the best will be shown at special Screening Event and may even be used in a TV commercial!

Your video can be serious or humorous. Creative or bland. Entertaining or sad. Record on your webcam, cell phone, FlipVideo camera; just do it!

We only ask that it’s clean (you would be proud to show to your Mom) and delivers our message. Vote No!

Questions? Email us at: cincinnatiansforprogress@gmail.com

If a YouTube commercial is the best "Cincinnatians for Progress" can do for the charter amendment campaign coming in November, then you all need to shut this website down and pack it in. The NAACP & its partners are going door-to-door talking to citizens about the streetcar issue. "Cincinnatians for Progress" are too much of a bunch of yuppies to get their hands dirty, hit the ground and talk to the people about the issue. Campaigns are won and lost on the ground and believe me...Cincinnatians for Progress are losing. The Mayor, your so-called "chairman", himself won't knock on one hundred doors to campaign for the issue. Big money couldn't stop the jail tax from going down and big money sure as hell won't stop the charter amendment from passing. The citizens of Cincinnati will decide whether they want a streetcar, not the politicans, thanks to the NAACP and its partners.
