Well, this is interesting. A reader forwards me an email from Barack Obama’s list, trying to give a boost to the Democratic candidate to replace Anthony Weiner, David Weprin.

Here’s the email:

This Sunday, September 4th, volunteers will be making calls and knocking on doors in New York’s 9th Congressional District for David Weprin. I hope you can make it.

Assemblyman Weprin is the Democratic nominee in the special congressional election on Tuesday, September 13th. He has a long record of getting results for New York’s seniors, students, and middle-class residents, and he’s focused on holding government accountable — first as chair of the City Council’s Finance Committee and now as an assemblyman. He’s exactly the kind of leader we need in Congress.

You should join the event in New York on Sunday to help contact voters in David’s district — the calls you make could be the ones that put him over the top.

Here are the details:

What: Organizing for David Weprin

From fighting for first responders to passing the Recovery Act and historic health care legislation, President Obama and Democrats in Congress have put together a long list of achievements.

If we’re going to continue to build on this work and create jobs, we need strong allies like David in Congress. On the other hand, the Republican nominee supports making harmful changes to Medicare and Social Security, and has even put raising costs for seniors on the table.

The choice couldn’t be clearer. RSVP here to help David and contact voters in New York:
