VP Biden stops in Springfield (Ohio) and brought us pizza!!!
It was a once in a lifetime thing. And a complete surprise for most of us there! http://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/news/local/biden-pays-unannounced-visit-to-springfield/nSmGX/

1. When I read your OP I thought in my little brain:
|
"That's not cool. No one should go in a pizza place and buy voters pizza to buy votes."
Duh! He brought them to the campaign office. That's sweet! |

It was designed by a local artist. We got it painted in July just in time for the opening of the new headquarters.

Sometimes I really wish I lived in a Swing state so that I could do more...be on the 'front lines' so to speak.
When ya live in a red state, sometimes you feel like nothing you do really matters, even though it actually does. |

5. I agree!

Hard to discuss anything with anyone here in Georgia, other than family.
Usually, I have to call my sister in Orlando to get the heads up on things. She worked for Allen Grayson's campaign years ago. Linda Stewart is a personal friend. |

7. Good news! You can make calls to voters over the internet!!
|
https://call.barackobama.com/
You will need to sign up for a OFA acct (takes seconds) and then it will default you to call voters in your area BUT you can choose a different state from the drop-down menu. I've been phonebanking from my laptop. It's fun, they provide you with all the info and script and the results of your call are reported automatically. It's great b/c you can do just a few calls or spend hours, whatever you have time for at the moment. |
