4. That is exactly what I am doing right now! Good luck, nc4bo.
I'm guessing that you are in North Carolina?

11. Yay! Have you already voted? I'm in PA, so no early voting for me. Sure wish it was out of the
way. I'm doing GOTV today and tomorrow.

Good luck to you!

29. No...I'll vote at the polls tomorrow
We live in a small township, if everyone went to vote at the same time we'd still only have to wait in line for an hour or so!

Iowa is looking pretty strong for Obama (but I am still holding my breath!) Do all you can to make PA BLUE November 4th!

12. Me too! I can't wait. You're in Maine? I'm in Pittsburgh. Lots of support here, but lots of
confusion. I've talked to so many people who are voting for the very first time. Its exciting.

14. Good shoes are too important! My dad canvasses in Texas in cowboy boots, of all things.
He swears they're better than sneakers.
Where in PA are you? I'm in Pittsburgh. What time are you planning to go to your poll tomorrow?

34. Just got home. I'm in Westmoreland County.
My feet are tired, but the sun was shining and I was doing door hangers in a little town with a LOT of steep hills. I got a great workout!

I will probably vote first thing in the morning and volunteer after that. My son goes to Pitt and he has already voted absentee. Hubby will probably vote first thing tomorrow as well. My daughter is too young to vote, but I am going to take her along with me tomorrow to watch me vote and do some door knocking. Obama is getting three votes from our household!

17. Good for you! I hope you have a good "comfort captain" (that's what we called it in the primaries).
Someone who brings you some coffee and donuts.
Good luck!

20. I hope you enjoy it. It should be a very exciting day! Did you take the day off, or did your
company offer it. I think everyone should be given at least a half day off on election day. It should be law. Like jury duty.

30. just got back!
Raining here in NC but still got through 2 packets of contacts with my 7 year old daughter (schools out today).
I probably could have talked her into part of another shift but amazingly volunteer turn-out was so great this morning they finished our section of town!

I have to work until 7.00 but I'm going to my staging location to help prep for tomorrow right after work. I figure I can at least get a little time in today.
