I created a postcard "from Portugal" after the Kokomo's mayor, Matt McKillip, suggested in the Kokomo Tribune that he would
bill taxpayers for his personal vacation to Portugal. The web feature allowed users to send the e-postcard to their friends and encouraged activists to call the
mayor's office to demand he "pay for his own vacations." The Party collected data online as each person pledged to call or e-mail then Mayor's office, and within
two days, tens of people did just that. That week, the project made the pages of The Kokomo Tribune and after it was blasted to a group of nearly a thousand
Democratic activists in the state, was featured on Taking Down Words, Indiana's premiere Democratic blog.
