The coolest things happened while I passed out Kerry stuff at the game
Me and the sponsor got many requests for stickers from little kids about 8-14.

2. I'd say Gen Z
I am generation Y. Really this kid comes up to me and my young dems sponsor and innocently asks "can I have a sticker if you don't mind? I am a big fan of Senator Kerry and saw the debate" I said sure of course, he was about 10 years old it looked like.

4. I can well believe it.

My sons would've been asking for them, too. They're 10 and 12 and both of them watched the debate with absolute delight. They couldn't wait to get to school the next day to talk about it, too. They are HUGE fans of Senator Kerry and, living in TX as we do, knowledgable about the disaster that is *. They think John Kerry rocks! They made up their own minds, although I happen to agree.

Senator, :yourock:

5. Could be -- you prompted me to do some googling...
on the change of generations, and it looks like Gen Zers are going to be those born starting in the mid-nineties.

3. The little kids love the stickers. If you're precinct walking and you see
any sign there's a kid in the house, leave a sticker at the door if nobody is home, or give one to the person who answers the door.

You guys get stickers? My husband and I are precinct captains and we don't get any stickers! We only get yard signs, bumper stickers and winddow signs, and we have to charge for them. Another down to living in a "safe" state?

We last went democratic when my mom was 5 years old. This wasn't canvassing, this was a homecoming parade for our town.
