I’m disappointed that all I’ve gotten is a fundraising request – I’m champing at the bit to get going!

So I’m not sure if this post is an honest question or an oblique indictment of the campaign’s outreach efforts so far. If it’s an honest question, I reached out to Matt Harutunian, who is Markey’s Deputy Political Director and he said for now people who are interested can contact him at matt@edmarkey.org or by cell at 617-910-0679.
Thanks! Is there a reason this info isn’t front and center at Markey’s web site? At the very least, they should have a form for volunteers to enter their data.

This campaign is very new, and there’s plenty we can do ourselves, since for most of us this isn’t our first campaign. I am happy to get inquiries from eager volunteers, and have been checking in with people who have been on our team in 2012 and earlier. There’s plenty that can be done without a formal structure in place. There’s going to be tons of work to do, so, please don’t wait for an invitation to get started.
Also, Senator Kerry has yet to be confirmed and vacate the seat.
In the 4th Middlesex District, I’m more than happy to hear from folks wanting to get involved.
That’s how I got the one request for a donation that I have received so far. However, I did follow sco’s advice to send an email to Matt, and he has already replied to say that they are ramping up and I should check back in next week.

Mr. Markey seems to have is a very embryonic (as in one page w/ two buttons) website up as of January 25, 2013.
It includes a “sign up page” that invites supports to “Sign up for Email Updates”.

The first line in my post above should have included a link, perhaps I fat-fingered the tag.
Ed Markey For Senate.
Editors: The “Preview” button has been broken awhile now. It would be really great if we could get it fixed!
