We want to DO mass direct tweeting to fellow Alabamians of this message.
Please join with us by doing either or both of Steps One and Two below.
Step One

Step Two
Send individual tweets to other Alabamians, which tweets have a link to this webpage. This will be to try to get recipients of tweets to come to this webpage, send their own tweet in Step One, and, after that, join in sending tweets to more Alabamans in this Step Two. The goal here to get a large number of "pyramiding" of tweets going to Alabama voters.
A suggested tweet message to send in this Step Two is:

FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR TWEETING
The object of this method of tweeting is to get a "pyramiding" of tweets going in Alabama. Anyone joining in this tweeting should consider whether it violates Twitter's Platform Manipulation and Spam Policy. I have endeavored to make my case with Twitter for this method of tweeting. See letter to Twitter @Support.
B. How to send your tweets efficiently from laptops
In doing your tweeting, you are repetitively sending the same tweet message. This can be done very efficiently, at least on a laptop computer. Get the tweet message on your mouse clipboard, go to the follower list you are using for your tweeting, start with the first person on the list you want to tweet to, and do this:
1. Right click on person's Twitter name.
2. Choose "open in new tab"
3. Go to the new tab.
4. Click on the "Tweet to" button.
5. Paste the tweet message in the box.
6. Hit the "Tweet" button.
7. Close the tab, which takes you back to the list
8. Go on to next person, and repeat above steps.
You should be able to send 35 to 70 tweets in a half hour. Send as many tweets as you are willing to. Don't worry about any duplication that you think may arise.
