(Organizing for Action (OFA) affiliates have supposedly not been created yet. It is likely the above six organizations already have common membership with OFA. The following is from the OFA/Barack Obama website’s Frequently Asked Questions: “People from all 50 states with different backgrounds and skill sets will work to form Organizing for Action local organizations to support President Obama and fight for the issues we care about. We’ll have more information to come, but if you have an idea about how to organize your community, please email organizingforaction@gmail.com.”)
