Posted by Asian Americans for ObamaObama for America will open
its Philadelphia Chinatown headquarters (924 Cherry Street, 2nd Floor Rear, Philadelphia, PA
19107) on Saturday,
March 22 with festivities beginning at 11:30 AM.
Andy Toy, a community leader and
supporter of Senator Barack Obama, said, "This office is the first
presidential campaign office that I know of to open in a Chinatown.
It is a testament to the Asian American communities here in Philadelphia that ‘we’ve arrived.’"
Mr. Lee Deng, a softspoken Obama
supporter, donated the office space. When asked what motivated him to support
Senator Obama, Mr. Deng said Senator Obama’s message of inclusion and hope had
touched him deeply. He said simply, "I want to help in any way I
can."

the upcoming primary is Monday, March 24, 2008. Additionally, voters registered
as "Independents" or unaffiliated with a party will not be able to
vote in the April 22nd Primary Election. They must be registered Democrats to
vote for Senator Barack Obama.
Between March 22 and 31, the office
will be open Mondays and Fridays 10 AM – 6 PM, Saturdays 12 PM – 6
PM, and Sundays 12 PM – 6 PM. Beginning April 1, the office will be open
seven days a week from 9 AM – 9 PM.

registration forms in Korean, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Cambodian/Khmer, English,
and Spanish. Those interested in volunteering or donating office supplies
