GOTV Pennsylvania: Bring an extra umbrella to share to the polls

Ask them about WWII and they will stay all day!
And you'll get to learn something!

Just talked to two elderly gentlemen Saturday. I thanked them and said, do you know almost every child never gets past the Civil War in U.S. History?
