Daily KOS : “I will not vote for Mitch McConnell, absolutely not.”
A Kentucky Democratic voter, 78 year old Christine, misheard me when I said I was a volunteer with MoveOn.org making calls to help defeat Mitch McConell. She thought I was asking her to vote FOR Mitch.
Her voice got much louder as she firmly stated, “I will not vote for Mitch McConnell, absolutely not.”
I clarified that that was what I was hoping she would say, as I was actually calling to encourage folks to vote Democrat. “That’s more like it!” Christine stated. When I asked her what her plan to vote was, she confided that she was “not gettin’ on so well”, and was just “hopin’ to get to the polls tomorrow”.
Well the 3% difference in the polls between Grimes and McConnell that I told her about, made her change her answer. “Alright then, I’ll find a way.”
She was so glad to hear that after voting for the Democratic candidate for the past 30 years, she might finally get to see the day that Mitch is defeated! This would have been the first election she didn’t make it to the polls, but now she will.
