Record-breaking Day!

69,898 doors in the Congressional district. Today. 261 volunteers at 7,581 doors knocked in my county. Today. I’m excited, exhausted.

We started the day at 7:30am to discover the office key was not in the flower pot. Oopsie! I crouched in the vestibule and ran my turf lists spying the printer through the window to see if it worked.

From 9am to 5pm we ran through every one of our turfs, stole turf from Liberty and Lumberland, and refreshed 3 of our lists and still didn’t have enough. It was unbelievable. I’ve never seen any thing like it.

The four of us in the office were humming. Bob’s space design was a big boost. I was a very good bureaucrat and created a merged Word form to assign and code every turf that went out. A spreadsheet was involved, of course.

I am so jazzed. If our CD is any indication of what the temperature is out there for Democratic candidates, I am feeling way more optimistic.

And thank god for an extra hour tonight.Read more
