Welcome to the Illinois state group page! My name is Andy Wilson, I’m Unity08’s Volunteer Program Coordinator, and I manage this group. I need someone from your state to help manage this group. Interested? Email me and let me know.
Unity08 Groups are just like groups you may have used on Yahoo or Myspace, except our groups are only for one purpose: to revitalize our democracy by electing the next President. Politics as usual tries to divide us: these groups help us connect and unite.
You are automatically a member of your state group based on where you live. The main purpose of this group is to help to build your state’s Unity08 membership. You can post your ideas on a blog or forum. You can also share files, take or create polls, and connect with other Unity08 members.
You can also search for a local group on the main groups page. So far, Unity08 members have created the following local groups:
Augustana College Unity08 Members
Northeastern Illinois
If you don’t see a group for your area, create one! Then, email me and let me know and I'll add it to the list here.
Look for groups that focus on the issues or candidates you care about. You can also see the newest and most active groups. Once you’ve joined a group, you will see all of your groups in MyUnity08 under MyGroups. Join in, start a group, get connected!

Keeping in touch with what's going on in your state
The best way to keep in touch with everything that's going on locally is to edit your subscriptions by clicking on "My Subscriptions" above on the right hand column.
Then tell it you want Email Notification enabled and hit submit. Now every time someone posts a blog, forum, or an event, we'll send you an email letting you know.
If you think you're getting too much email, you can set it back to disabled at any time.
You can do this with every group you join, so make sure you're staying informed with what's going on.
